I just saw how my dear friend decided not to listen to a good advice because it came from some random person's mouth. Later, a wise man gave my friend the same advice, and he suddenly changed; he truly listened to the same words and acted upon them.

Do we ever listen to the words? Or we only look at those who are talking?

This question is baffling me for ages. I mean, I know the answer as it is obvious - we only listen to the people, but not the words. Sadly, I don't understand why we are so short-sighted. Why cannot we understand that sometimes the stupidest person can say the wisest words, which even Gods would be eager to hear?

Thinking about all this, I came to a conclusion - we must start looking at every single person in the world as if they were our spiritual leaders (whatever it means). First, it would solve a problem of disrespect. Second, we might actually start listening to what people say. And believe me, sometimes they say unforgettably ridiculous, yet genius, ideas.

Of course, never fully trust anyone and never take anyone's words for granted. However, always listen. Just stop for a second a listen. I mean, my friend could have saved so much time if he only listened to that random guy instead of waiting for a wise man to repeat the same stuff.

And most importantly, make yourself your spiritual leader. Listen to yourself... and your crow
