1) Hearing

When a bird flies over your head a farts you hear that!!!!

2) Listening

When you talk to your spouse or your children you listen. Listening involves hearing what is said, and also feeling what is being said! That is the difference between the two. In a marriage you must feel what is being said by your spouse so you can relate on there level. I'm guilty of not relating. But a work in progress. Part of life and marriage is learning.
