Listening....

.... to a friend sometimes is more helpful than giving advice. I've learned over the years some of my friends (while venting) just wants me to listen. I know this is very random, but the other day a friend was sharing some news with me about him and his man, and I was very bias about what he was talking about only because of pass issues they have had with one another, that he's also shared with me. I saw in his face the joy he had in telling me what he did, drain right out of him, and I felt so bad. So I the lesson I've learned here was sometimes u just gotta listen to your friends. Even if you don't always agree with what they decided or do, It really doesn't hurt to take a few moments to just listen, and let them enjoy their moment, despite what you may personally feel deep inside about the situation.
