Editor,I would like to congratulate the author of the article titled, "Listening is key in successful relationships”, The New Times June 14, for the great lesson learnt from this article. Many people ignore the importance of listening in life which may seem fickle but paying attention to your partner is vital in a relationship.If you are not able to care and listen to your life partner, then it will be impossible for you to listen to people you hardly know. To the author of the article, keep it up!Thomas Kipruto
