Until I Listen

I think I see but I am incredibly wrong. I believe I hear, but I do not. I think I know. Nothing Could be further from the truth I do not know what I do not know Until I finally learn to turn off preconceived ideas and listen

Good one. I think this is so true of most of us. Things are not always like we think they are until we stand back, take a closer look, re-evaluate, and reconsider. Really enjoyed this poem. Made me think.

I have to admit I do have preconceived notions and I have to CONSCIOUSLY kill them in each situation.
