Learning to Pay Attention All Over Again

'When Morrie was with you, he was really with you. He looked you straight in the eye, and he listened as if you were the only person in the world...so many people with far smaller problems are so self-absorbed, their eyes glaze over if you speak for more than thirty seconds. They already have something else in mind- a friend to call, a fax to send..'
