My beloved nerdy family subscribes to A Word of the Day.  One would hope that would make me more articulate, but the part of the daily mailing that I enjoy the most is the quote.  I save ones I like and today I thought I'd share it with the world.  It expresses a sentement that I've had since at least high school.

The older I grow, the more I listen to people who don't talk much. -Germain
G. Glien

I think I feel this way because I'm always talking and always have something to say and always think it's important, so I'll interrupted, talk on end, not really listen then when I finally shut up, feel the fool.

Here's to learning to shut my mouth and open my ears.
