Affection

One mouth you were given, but two ears
So you would talk half as much as you hear
Remember this biological fact
  ~ and affection you will gain from your peers

Hi Gershon, I agree with your wise words. We all should at attempt to do this. Well done:-) Alexis

Doing it pays great dividends, no doubt. (And the wise words came straight from my Mom). :) gw

Great advice, if only we would listen.

You've got it! Two ears; only only mouth. 'Nuff said.

Thank you for your kind words, Carolyn... This 'wisdom' came straight from my Mom, Of Blessed Memory. :) gw
