the art of listening. henning mankell talks of his time in africa in an amazing ny times article.
“The simplest way to explain what I’ve learned from my life in Africa is through a parable about why human beings have two ears but only one tongue. Why is this? Probably so that we have to listen twice as much as we speak.”
a merry christmas & happiest of hannukahs & loveliest of winters to all.
may the new year be filled with lots & lots of listening.
