Advice

It is easier to be wise for others than for ourselves.

Francois De La Rochefoucauld

This is so true. When my friends come to me with problems I can usually come up with a solution quickly. You see the problem without being involved. You see what they should do, but the other person has feelings involved which makes it much harder.

I love giving advice and most of the time I think I'm pretty good at it too. When it comes to taking advice though, I'm terrible. I see what they mean but I want to do it another way (which is usually the wrong way). Its a tough situation but next time you think to yourself "why did she do that and not listen to my advice" remember the quote above.
