Learning from others

You know...
In this world, there are unbelievingly many people. And each and every one of them has a story to tell. The story of his/her life.
I would like to hear them all. There's no way to get to know people better than to listen to the stories they tell.
And it's not about whether you like the story, can agree with it or not, find it exciting or not. The point is to simply listen. Listen to another point of view, other experiences and other feelings. This way, your heart will open up to the world and your own place in it will become clearer to see.
