    In my experience, the #1 thing (beyond their basic needs) people want is to be heard, to be listened to. It only makes sense that if we pledge to listen to others, interconnections will between all people will grow — and perhaps even snowball to contribute to unity and a willingness to act together for the greater good of all.
