If I Hate It, I Really Need to Listen!

The other day I was chatting with a friend who said something so brilliant that I had to share.


We were talking about something hard.

I offered her some advice, with consent of course!

And in response she said "I hate you"

*relatable!*

I laughed for a sec and reminded her that she doesn't have to listen to me anyway.

And then she said the best thing...

She said "no. I know that if I hate it, that it means I really need to listen"

*Mic drop*
 

If I hate it then I really need to listen.

Wow.

That's the thing, though.
 

The people who know that when they really hate something that a part of them knows its true and they decide to listen more closely instead of run away?
 

Those are the people who are healing.
Evolving.
Changing.
Becoming.

That's the difference.

Getting closer instead of running away.
 

The funny thing is that I don't even remember what my advice was. Not even a clue!

But her response is not one that I'll soon forget.

If I hate it then I really need to listen.
 

What do you really need to listen to today?

I love you.
