Had I not moved ahead, who would have been the last to take that road I wonder. I am sure there would have been quite a few, though their tread marks I do not see. Maybe with passage of time they might have been erased. I am not sure , maybe I am the first to take that road.
If I had stopped hearing what they had to say, how would I know what they thought of me. I would never know whether they did value what I had to do or say. I would have had very little to think about or even understand all those around me.
If I had stopped talking how would I ever know what answers or opinions they had about whatever I did speak. What was liked or disliked by them. I would never understand the value of words which we need to understand when and how to utter.
If I had no feelings or emotions how would I even connect with anyone. I would just simply be an object which though living just lies scattered, in one place . An object that would have been worn out with time, with scratches or even torn to pieces but no reaction.
I am here to feel, to be heard, to speak and like you I need to do all of this. In most cases it is understood or made to be one sided. They do not understand, had there be nobody you would simply be talking, hearing and feeling yourself , not knowing what could or should have been done. To live you need to connect and to connect you need to communicate and to communicate you need to hear and to hear you need to feel. Unless you feel that the other has an equal right to do so you would not connect. What we want to do is simply be the only one who has such a right. Your value is what you are from inside and for that you need to hear, feel and speak right.
