It is often very easy when others are talking to us to be thinking about something completely different, and be wishing you were somewhere else. One of the great characteristics of loving and caring people is to be present when talking to others. They are there now... be there with them. Listen to the words and meaning of what they are saying. This lets the person know that they are important and what they are talking about has meaning to you.
In the grander scheme of life, what will be most important? I believe it is the relationships we have established, and the loving natures we create in ourselves. All other things are secondary. Let's make first things first and be present.
