Caring;



Think of the time you had a conversation with someone, and you had the impression that they really
weren't that interested in talking to you. Did you feel irritated? we need to remind ourselves that other people can also tell when we are not that interested in them.

To attract others we have to care about them. When we are vitally interested in someone, there is rarely a problem in keeping the conversation going. When we care, we forget about ourselves. We stop wondering," What am i gonna to say next?" There are no more of those long, uneasy silences during which you both look around the room, check your phone and agree again that the weather has been very nice. Caring means putting ourselves in the other person's shoes; setting aside our own experiences and saying, "You tell me your story."

If you don't want to make the effort, to care, it is probably preferable to leave. Find some company you really want, watch any series, read a book, rather than spend an evening or night goin through the motions with people you don't want to be with. If you are going to talk to people, why not give them your whole attention? But sometimes by doing that cold water is splashed right back to your face.

like a butterfly; you can admire its grace and beauty within you palm. Grasp it to tight it will die; grasp it to lightly it will fly away... sighs*
