Its happened to all of us, you are talking to someone, when someone else comes along and starts talking, giving no heed to you or what you have been trying to say. (that is what is so nice about this blog! You can't say anything until the end ;) ) Its very annoying and very rude, the Bible says to beware of the tongue for it is an instrument of sin. We should try to be better listeners and maybe not so much of a talker. Let me tell you, its fun to talk, have people hear you, and laugh (if its a joke) or just listen well, but there is not much more frustrating then trying to tell someone something and having others talking at the same time. Sometimes, I have discovered, that people will let their tongue talk, and not know what they are going to say next. Its happened to me, sometimes its funny, with the wrong people its very embarrassing and sometimes can cause permeant divisions in relationships. That is why I am trying to say to day, that if anyone talked half as much and listened twice as much they would that much wiser. You can not learn from what you are saying (most of the time) but if someone else is talking you learn.
I have noticed at drivers ed (speaking of which, stay off the roads in late August early September) that many many many (just about all) the people there take God's name in vain in about one in every 3 sentences. It is very disturbing to have to hear that all the time (which is one reason I am glad I don't go to the public school system).
