And Suddenly I was Awakened From My Dream!!!

I wrote this entry a while back. I've noticed how much I've grown since then. :)

Yes I was... well not so suddenly, but I thought that I understood everything there was to understand about relationships, friendships and people in general. I thought that consoling someone when they're in pain was the best thing... or telling someone how i felt about a situation they were going through... or even giving advice about things that I've been through... I thought that I was doing good!!! Wouldn't you feel the same? After all you are filled with good intentions. At least I was!! But I learned that 9 out of 10 times, it's better to keep a still tongue.

It took a friend 2 hours to explain the big picture to me... In summary... people learn best when they endure situations on there own strength... Most people just want to know that you're there for them and that you're a great listener. They don't need lectures on how things worked out for you or wonderful ideas they must try, especially if they did not ask!! My friend did a great job in waking me from my dream.

Again, I'm beginning a New Chapter of my Life... One where I'll definitely LISTEN MORE and talk less.

Remember, Proverbs 21:23 says,

"Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue, keepeth his soul from troubles". (KJV)
