The Listenary

There are times when it’s not safe to listen as I’ve described it here. There are a few people who reject the gift of listening and want to destroy it. There are more people who have reached a state of listening burnout. I am learning how to define myself and my limits early in a relationship so as to help prevent both destruction and burnout. Those who don’t like defined relationships are probably not those who will benefit from my gift of listening.

Keeping safe is necessary for my longevity in giving the gift of listening.
