listen
no one really listens anymore.appreciate every single second of silence as a person's response to what you've just told them; and hope that it was what you said that made them contemplated and wandered.
can you remember the last time someone actually stop, listen and then responded to your thoughts?
well, the situation where we're all too familiarised with is when everyone have their opinions and waits for the right opportunity to put in their two sense into the conversation. It surprises me sometimes of how such conversations could go on forever. when its anything but intellectual stimulating.
what's the bloody point of sharing your views when there's an implied mutual agreement where noone should give a damn.
i observe very attentively. i am a good listener.
thus, i know those who knows their stuff despite having the shortest attention span towards others beside themselves. and i know those who contribute nothing to a conversation unless its a no brainer.
all i ask for is a pause. 2 seconds. 3 seconds. at least respond to what i've said rather than being in constant thought of what to say next when i'm actually speaking. its disrespectful... and i feel that its a waste talking to such individuals.
