i will literally always stop someone who is hogging a conversation when someone has been trying to say something—what you have to say is important and I care 😤
there's no better way to show that you value your thoughts over everyone else's when you interrupt.
also, waiting for your turn to talk does not mean you're actually listening... pause your internal dialogue and fully hear what the other person is saying. it's tough because real listening is a skill.
one definitely worth practicing.
Life opened up for me when I left behind assuming everyone is out to get me (the universe, coworkers, random strangers, etc.)
Some might be, most aren’t <3
I lost my sweet old man dog in February and I will never miss an opportunity to talk about him. Im so thankful for the people in my life who don’t feel like they have to tip toe about asking about Jack and how I’m doing, it’s worse to pretend like I’m not grieving and dance around it. He existed and I love sharing about him
