Weekly Thoughts

A wise man said, "The fact that we have two ears and only one mouth, of itself, might suggest that we should listen more and talk less." All culture begins with listening. Growth is not through shrewd thinking or eloquent speaking, but through accurate seeing and listening. Only those who had mastered the art of listening can hear "the still, small voice" of truth.

Thoughts by the late Rev. Paul Osumi are selected weekly by his family.
