TIB...

  While researching what to talk about not only for my blog but for my This I Believe Essay I found it challenging yet rewarding to think of something or someone I truly believe in... Believing is such a strong word it literally means "to have confidence in the truth, the existence, or the reliability of something, although without absolute proof that one is right in doing so."  When looking for a TIB story off of the page I researched stories under the "faith and religion".

I chose this essay titled " A daily walk just to listen" because often times that is the exact opposite of what I do. I feel that sometimes in my professional life along with my personal life I don't listen as much as i talk whether it is giving advice, talking with God, or even talking to family and friends...I talk... Susan spoke about how her daily walks just to listen inspired her...she was able to take what she "learned' on her walk through her notepad and pen to teach others and truly become an inspiration. By listening and learning that sometimes we can get the most out of our silence. 

 As I look forward I can see that I need to take time to myself to listen and be given advice by the one who knows my future...instead of always trying to guess what steps I need to take next.
