Dear Devon,
I want to thank you. Thank
you for being a wonderful person and listening.
Not just listening but taking the things I say and putting them into
practice.
When we were walking to the movie the other day you said “Today
is a good day to clean the pool,” that
told me that you listened to what I said and understood that it meant you can
change your mind by changing your thoughts.
Words are tools that can be used to change your mind and other people’s
minds. More important than words is the
ability to listen.
Listening with you eyes and your ears will give you to tools
to influence people. I am quiet because
I choose to listen more than talk. You
have a gift that you can talk and listen at the same time. The most important of these is the listening
but the talking lets you really engage people and build trust quickly.
You are wise. You
always have been. Part of that wisdom is
putting into practice which I see you do all the time.
Dad.
