I am starting to get old enough that I think I can begin to talk from experience. One of the things that I have learned over the years is that people want you to listen to them. They want to be heard. They want someone to understand them.
Often we never move past conflict, because we care about our own ideas more than the other people involved. People are always more important than ideas. People are more important than ideas. I repeated that on purpose.
Even if you can't fix a thing, people always feel better when you take time to care about them. Listen to them. Look them in the eye. Value them.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
