Happy Wednesday! Think of this the next time you feel the need to give someone advice!

Advice and love are not well conveyed in this medium. All living beings deserve compassion

adambede.bsky.social•138 days ago

The advice gets in the way of creating relationships and keeping them going. Advice effectively is saying you know better than the other person.

It’s so true Pat. Thank you for the reminder.

Some people really need advice

bannerite.bsky.social•138 days ago

If they ask for it, then by all means tell them what you think, especially if you have experience or expertise to share.

Amen!

I need UBI and universal healthcare.

Thank you. I needed this

My father taught me never to give anyone advice. I instead help some to see all sides of a problem and never judge them for the decisions they make.💗

Our dads must be related! Mine always says, let people be and just be nice. Its so simple but profound 🩷

And food. 👍

I don't have the answers, I just do the #memes

As an educator, husband, and father, it has been my experience that “love and acceptance” is the gateway for the dispensation of advice.

Please tell that to males. I am so damn sick of their idiotic mansplaining. 😡

ahealthybrkfst.bsky.social•138 days ago

Yeah sure...hugging morons is the answer.

bannerite.bsky.social•138 days ago

I prefer avoiding them as much as possible!

davedun.bsky.social•138 days ago

It’s taken me 48 years, but I’m getting there…

wkndfrittatadude.bsky.social•139 days ago

It took me a long time to realize that. My instinct was always to have some magical answer. Now I just listen and let them know they are heard.

bannerite.bsky.social•139 days ago

💯😍 and it isn’t easy. I have a bite my tongue!

wkndfrittatadude.bsky.social•138 days ago

Me too.

Well that's some good advice!

paulatics.bsky.social•138 days ago

My mom always said “Never give advice unless someone’s asks you for and even then, think twice”.

bannerite.bsky.social•138 days ago

Smart moms we had!

My mom always said that advice given to an adult unasked for was criticism.

cleariati.bsky.social•138 days ago

Your mom sounds like a wise person.

bannerite.bsky.social•138 days ago

She lived a long life and evolved to become a pretty good person. I often wonder what she’d say about what is happening to our country and the world today!

jafkettani.bsky.social•138 days ago

Listening sometimes hurt the ego but in fact advise or criticism are imho the best way to grow. But sure most people just want to chill why bother them.
