Many times, I find myself giving advice. Over the past several days, I’ve begun to notice how many times I am having conversations in my head. I tell my daughters what to do about their lives. I tell clients how to get well. All these conversations go on in my head. No is present. When I see the people later, the items that I’ve thought about seem inappropriate to share. So why do I have theses conversations? They are for me. All advice, all thoughts, all insights that come to me are really for ME!
How can this be? Others need help. There are saying and doing completely stupid stuff! Someone needs to tell them that their life could be easier if they only would follow my advice. Take a day off, get organized, take time for a real meal, have fun, exercise…Hmmm…? Is it possible that, because I see them from my point of view, that anything that I think is wrong with them is really a problem with me?
