Some people think they are very wise
Sensitive to themselves and others
Honest in their communication
They tell you everything currently happening in their lives
They talk on the phone with you for hours
Write you lengthy e-mails and share their deepest emotions
they voice their life disappointments, lost relationships
heir fantasies, hidden desires and wishes
PLEASE, try not to INTERRUPT them
Or get them to STOP TALKING just so
they can LISTEN TO YOU
What makes you think,
“It’s your turn or It must be your turn to talk?”
Isn’t listening what real good friends do?
REMEMBER who called first
Who sent the initial e-mail
Feel reassured, they wanted to talk with you
You’ll be all right, just hold on tight
your past, your present, your future
won’t suffer or be denied
Wait until they are through talking
allow their one more issue and emotion
Breathe and listen as good friends do
Realize, after all, they are the ones
who first wrote or called YOU
Appreciate the fact that next time
it might be you who’s writing or calling them ...
