Putting people in grooves is wrong as everyone has a right to be happy whether superior, inferior or mediocre and so this struggle to gain positions according to me is a waste of time.
-
The point is, if one sees themselves as second best, as inferior, that controls them. No one has to do anything to ‘oppress’ them. They do that themselves.

You say right in words are hidden human wills and intentions that show the speaker’s conscious but a few people know it and understand it but most of the people do not pay attention to the spoken words and get deceit while talking from the speaker.
We live and breathe words. …. It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them. Reading your words, what you wrote, how you were lonely sometimes and afraid, but always brave; the way you saw the world, its colors and textures and sounds, I felt–
I felt the way you thought, hoped, felt, dream. I felt I was dreaming and thinking and feeling with you. I dreamed what you dreamed, wanted what you wanted–and then I realized that truly I just wanted you,
My task, which I am trying to achieve is, by the power of the written word, to make you hear, to make you feel–it is, before all, to make you see.

You are right in your analysis. We do not listen to others rather we are always interested in talking. We want others to listen our great words and if they do not do so, we get irritated. We feel embarrassed and consider it our insult.
You wrote well but I would like following words to the great post written by you.Listening is not that easy rather one must practice this art. It will require a lot of patience to practice this art. I am also a bad listener. I start talking between some conversation. I consider it a bad habit.

It is not easy. That’s why I suggested one practice listening to the BBC. After awhile one hears ‘between the words’. For example, one can tell which side the sports broadcaster backs by how he reports.
When someone is talking, don’t think of what you are going to say when s/he stops, listen now.

I designed our house and this is how it is. You enter into the living room. The living room is connected to a narrow hallway that leads to the kitchen, our master bedroom, the toilet and the upstairs. .This tiny hallway connects everything. There is also a way to get to the first floor from outside. There is a narrow hallway upstairs too that connects to the two bedrooms, the toilet and the terrace. We do not have attached toilets.
In other words there is total privacy.-
WOW! It must be sweet to be able to design your own home. Most of the houses we’ve lived in were already built. We never got to do a brand new home from scratch! That’s cool! 🙂

We gave up our city life and moved to a semi rural tow, just so that we could get cheap land and that is how I could fulfil my dream of designing our home.

You’re brave. I grew up in a cosmopolitan city, Miami, Florida. Our first relocation was to a major Texas city, Houston. From there we went to the nation’s capital, Washington, D.C. We left D.C. and lived in El Paso, Texas for a couple of years. But we determined to move to Austin, the capital of Texas. We’ve been here since 1998. I don’t think I could give up the city life. My husband always laughs at me about that. He saves I could never survive if I didn’t live in a city. I’m afraid he’s right about that.
