Contemplative Listening. A partial definition: noticing my thoughts and feelings about things in life, but not stopping there. Training myself to listen for and open to a new vision, a creative, inspired, eternal vision of what is happening. Not merely in spite of my small reaction, but in addition to it.

You can imagine how differently one might respond to life as this practice matures and grows roots. Roots to connect one's heart to the Ground of Being.
