Sure, you see yourself as generous and giving, but how receiving are you of others, through listening? You pride yourself on loving people unconditionally, but will you listen to them unconditionally?
Listening is a mutual pleasure.
Listening is an act of both giving and receiving.
Listening is a receptive form of giving.
Listening is a meaningful form of intelligence.
Real listening is about full spectrum awareness.
The observer may, through the act of observation, change the nature of that which they observe. This is how listening works with life, and with relationships — through your so-called psychology, and through theirs. The more you listen, the more they change.
Surrender is a state of readiness, awareness, and listening, which says you are ready to hear the transmission and receive.
Resisting is not the posture of receivership.
If you resist life, it will refuse you — but if you surrender, the world will give you everything it has to offer.
