The feeling of being listened to is great.
Now mind you I’m not talking about just any old kind of listening, I’m talking about the holy grail of listening, undivided focused attention.
It feels like someone is taking the time and truly cares about your opinion.
The feeling can be so potent and uplifting that it can have addictive qualities and result in people who talk and talk and talk and talk.
Thereby scooping up all that juicy feeling for themselves.
This conversation dominating can spark annoyance, disinterest or sympathy in onlookers.
My opinion on this topic is to follow the kindergarten rule of sharing is caring. That way everyone gets a hit! 😛
