Emotionally Intelligent People Are a Blessing! Because they don't just listen to your words. They notice the pause in your voice, the small shift in your mood. They'll match your energy, in fact double it & give it back to you! They know how to make you smile. They won't always call you out on it, but trust me, they see it. They feel when something's off even when you say "I'm fine." "You can't really pretend with them.. They read the things you try to hide.. And it feels safe being seen like that."
