I'm not sure how many of you have ever taken the quiz to see what your love language is, but I have and discovered, with no surprise to anyone, mine was/is Words of Affirmation. I've always enjoyed talking to people and with people and clearly giving advice was supposed to be my "thing".
Ever since I discovered this, I felt that whenever a friend was upset, I had to constantly be saying something because that is was I was "supposed" to do. I didn't really know any better.
I recently learned, with experience, that just listening can be just as effective as saying something. Sometimes all people need is for you to nod your head while they vent whatever is on their mind.
This was just a quick little reminder to take time to listen as well as speak.
