I think we all have this tendency at one time or another. Listening is a skill. The reason we have two ears and one mouth. 😉

It happens on all levels of relationships too, not just friends and family. Some have a severe inability to listen and I'm finding the same deficit in comprehension when talking to people in the business arena. It's maddening.

If we take time to listen to one another, we'd have a much better understanding. We don't always need fixing.

Thanks for sharing your experience.
