Written August 24: I’m writing blogs in advance because I’m not sure how easy it will be to get online and post from Congo.
Megan and I went out to Culver’s for a sundae. We like ice cream.
She wanted to do a “marriage check in” and that starts with the things we appreciate about each other.
She launched into a bunch of things she appreciated about me and after a while she paused and said something like “Sorry I’m talking so much, but I appreciate you listening!”
Well, she was just talking on and on about things she appreciates about me. So I said, “This is easy listening. All this appreciation is muzak to my ears!”
It is easy to listen when we are being appreciated. If you want to improve listening with those you love the most, start by asking them to listen carefully to how much you appreciate them. It’s a great way to start a date off right!
