"We listen not only with our ears, but with our eyes, mind, heart and imagination, as well. We listen to what is going on within ourselves, as well as to what is taking place in the person we are hearing. We listen to the words of the other, but we also listen to the messages buried in the words. We listen to the voice, the appearance, and the body language of the other... We simply try to absorb everything the speaker is saying verbally and non-verbally without adding, subtracting, or amending."

The Ship

I am standing upon the seashore.  A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean.  She is an object of beauty and strength, and I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come down to meet and mingle with each other.  Then someone at my side says, “There, she is gone!”

“Gone where?”

Gone from my sight, that is all.

She is just as large in the mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side, and just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of her destination.  Her diminished size is in me, and not in her.

And just at that moment, when someone as my side says, “There! She’s gone!” there are other eyes that are watching for her coming and other voices ready to take up the glad shout:

“There she comes!”

... and that is dying.

"As it is, we must hold to other things, because Death is coming.  I love death – not morbidly, but because He explains.  He shows me the emptiness of Money.  Death and Money are the eternal foes.  Not Death and Life … Death destroys a man: the idea of Death saves him.  Behind the coffins and the skeletons that stay the vulgar mind lies something so immense that all that is great in us responds to it."                                                                                                                                                                           Howards End, 2002, Dover Publications
