If we know the answers to the untold questions, how can we have a discussion?

People don't know how to listen. It is a huge problem. I believe my mom used to tell me this, but I cannot remember correctly because who the hell listens to their parents?

Anyway, try to observe any discussion of two or more people. To be honest, if you can read minds, you might even want to observe how a single person is trying to discuss with himself, but let's not get into that for now. So, any meaningful discussion goes like this: one person is talking, another is listening, right? Sadly, those things never happen. The reality is:

While one person is talking, another one is thinking about their amazing answer. Oh yes, people only mind their own business and rarely do someone actually wants to listen instead of trying to push their ideas through.

If you want to call me an ignorant bastard who only criticize people, go one... I am not defending - I am an ignorant bastard. However, I also have guts to say that I don't know to listen as well. I am trying to learn, but seriously - whenever I am talking with someone, instead of listening to what they have to say, I am thinking about what I will reply. That is quite sick, isn't it? It even takes us away from the present if you think about it.

So, I came to a conclusion that we, humans, are actually robots who are programmed to have some shitty answers to every single question in the world. We don't need to listen anymore because we already know what we will answer anyway. We don't need to learn new things because we feel that we know it all already. And even when we pretend to listen, we don't. At least, I don't... Most of the time. Think about yourself now, do you know how to listen? Rewind your last conversation and remember how many times you actually thought of an answer because your partner finished speaking. That is dreadful, isn't it?
