Here are several ways to “show someone” that you “see them” and are really listening to what they are saying: 1. Acknowledge Them         Actually get outside of our own head long enough to take a second to acknowledge the existence of another human beings!        Even if it’s with a smile. How many people do we pass by daily that we just completely ignore because we are way “too busy?”        Sometimes, a brief moment of eye contact, a smile, or a “Hi, good morning,” is all someone really needs to “feel acknowledged” and to remind them that there are “still good people” in this decaying ...
