When you hear negativity do you listen?

Isabelle Esling, it's just me being selfish.....I believe you can help the masses by your thoughts alone....as for me, I would love to explore that mind of yours....but I won't speak on that anymore. Thanks

Why are you sad? I don't get this. There is much delight in staying silent and using words wisely when they are really needed.

Lokesh Kapoor, your response is far better than the question....thanks!

First of all very nice question sir
In fact, when I hear negativity I try to be calmed and find out the root thereof whether it can be checked or if I can handle unless or otherwise I hear(silently) but don't listen(carefully)... Hmmm

Isabelle Esling, OK but I'm sad...

Chhama Dixit, good for you and I hope you go annoyed free...

No, I'll never hear anything wrong which is not true or which makes us annoying.

speaking less is sinning less, as our Lord showed me.

Isabelle Esling, I get all the rest but if you speak less that isn't using your gift but I can't argue with Wisdom.

I have been confronted with negative people for a great part of my life, starting with my childhood...they used to drain my energy out and made me feel powerless...and i also attracted the depressive types. One day I decided to remove negative people from my life and to rewire my brain...I have worked with hypnotherapy CDs for a whole year...as for holding my mouth, it is now the work of the Holy Spirit...Yeshua is teaching me His wisdom. I speak less and more efficiently. Glory to our Lord:)

Isabelle Esling, I know the ending part but being in the streets as I have been early in life....I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut....getting a bit better though....thanks. Come to think of it sometimes I go negative, have to stop that!

Either I do not react to it or I respond in a positive way. But on many occasions it is much wiser to keep our mouths shut. Some negative people are just energy draining...and I need my positive energy to spread it all around.

Yes that is the away to do

Kishor Meswani, thanks!

Yes, look at the reasons thereof and see how it can be corrected.
