Proverbs 18:13-15 Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish. Intelligent people are always ready to learn. Their ears are often open for knowledge. People will draw closer to you only to figure you out. It's all about their motives. Someone once said, when a person shows you their true colors, don't take it lightly. You must be eager to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. Remember, this may cost you being different. That's a good thing. Always keep your heart pure towards anything you do.
