I Can Watch His Breast

first stop of the Way of Self: listening and presence

The question is in the presence of a human being to another, recognizing the other person in his inner being. Even if a cat or a bird, if you try, for example, to help a wounded bird, the first thing you need to know is there someone inside and you must wait until this "person", this being within or in contact with you. (ET Gendlin)

I am now beginning to be silent.

I a pause in the usual tumult of life.

I started listening to what is within me.

I put my thoughts and concerns.

I also offer my presence to others in the same spirit.

I listen from a place deep within me and calm.

I listen and take care of the words that I care.

I also listen to the silences, gestures and attitudes.
