Attention to another was so amazing at camp this year. What I noted was what happens in the speaker when he walks in a space of being heard. Wellness wisens gifts of thought, and weary pushing to be heard transforms to easy downhill assumption understood by me as silence in which to really create. Teachers easily could quietly jump through material faster when silence allows minds to come together in real dearly needed happiness of expression. When learning kills expression, we are all poorer and passion leaves the learning process. Righteous enforcement old school-wise makes wanted life goals waste away as dreams without feeder emotion evaporate to the ethers of quiet lost support from listening.
