Most of us as men are experts on women, until we marry one.
Experience can be rather humbling to our most treasured pre-conceptions.
As Mother s Day approaches each 2nd Sunday of May, it challenges men to find appropriate gifts for both our mothers and the mothers of our children. Flowers are, by far, the most popular gift on Mothers Day, followed by chocolates, candies, and other such delicacies. But perhaps the most valuable and most dangerous gift that we can give the women in our lives is the gift of listening. Listening takes time. Listening takes energy.
