Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 You shouldn't say that. Is it true? I think so. Can you absolutely know that it's true? No. Can you know what's best for another person's path? No. How do you react when you think the think the thought: You shouldn't say that? I am in the future thinking of the ramifications for saying it. I am in your business. I worry about it reflecting poorly on me. I try to change your words. I offer suggestions. I think you're doing it wrong. I am not trusting. I think I know best. I give myself the job you're doing instead of letting you take care of it. This thought keeps me wrapped up in you. It gives me a sense of *I know what I'm doing. I can contribute.* Who would you be without the thought: You shouldn't say that? I'd be amazing! Back in my business and out of yours. Giving you your creative space without trying to shove mine in. Not feeling controlling. Really hearing your idea before offering my comments...if you even ask me for them. Giving myself time to process everything you say. Non-reactionary. Peaceful when you speak and write. Grateful for your thoughts. Present, instead of in the future. Trusting. I would be a peaceful listener. TA> You should say that. Yes, it could be the best thing that ever happened! That is your business. TA> I should not say that. Yes, I should not say to myself that you should not say that. I also should not say my reactionary comments to you about what you might say.
