Listen

The Team at Mindline asked us to share this poem about the importance of listening. We're sure it'll touch you just as much as it touched us.

Listen

I am here to listen…not to work miracles.


I am here to help you discover what you are feeling…not make things go away.


I am here to help you identify your options…not to decide what you should do.


I am here to discuss steps with you…not to take steps for you.


I am here to help you discover your own strength…not to rescue you and leave you still vulnerable.


I am here to help you discover you can help yourself…not to take responsibility for you.


I am here to help you learn to choose…not to make it necessary for you to make difficult choices.


I am here to provide support for change!
