flaws of a blogger

I used to be a good listener (I think). But now that I flesh my many of my thoughts out through blogging so often, when I engage in conversation, I feel overconfident in my views.

I don't listen. I talk about my perspective (which, by the way, I'm a much better at writing than I am at talking), and find myself simply waiting for my turn to speak rather than actually listening.

Just because I've fleshed my thoughts out doesn't mean I'm right.

"My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry."
James 1:19
