As giraffe we focus on the quality of life in us and on the quality of life in others. A powerful example of this is hearing silence. With Jackal ears we easily can project the most horrible messages onto someone who responds with silence to us. With Giraffe ears we simply focus on the feelings and needs, that might be behind that behavior.

Notes
Vulnerability needs courage, because going to the feelings I can feel some fear in my heart.
It is being in touch with life, there is vulnerability. Let this fear be my guide.
