Are you talking too loudly to hear the voices of others?

Are you yelling so that others quit talking to you and around you?

Are your own opinions monopolizing your airwaves and brainwaves?

Be still.   Be silent.  Listen.

You will hear millions of voices.

Their words may be a different language , a different dialect or with a different accent.

Some are whispering, some are pleading and some are crying.

They may be different from yours.  You may not understand them.

Still listen.

They are your brothers and sisters.

They matter, too.

It’s not all about you.
