“If the person you are talking to doesn’t appear to be listening, be patient. It may be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.”
Pooh
This is one of my favorite quotes.
You think that it is going to be some wise advise, but it actually is very practical and literal, just like Winnie the Pooh.
And there’s the wisdom.
Sometimes we complicate things, when in reality, the answer is quite simple.
Be patient.
