You are so right! Sometimes I do unwise things, I really see that. I SHOULD know I am ready to recieve before I ask, it is so wise of you to see that. I SHOULD know how I will react before I am reacting, then I would be really wise, instead of playing stupid games that is unhealthy for me, as I am doing know. I SHOULD agree with the criticisms I don´t agree with. That would be so much better for me. Thank you for being such a good friend and letting me know what is best for me. I see that you know more than me and God about my path. You really care about me. Don´t you think it would be wisest of me to listen to you all the time, instead of listening to myself, and ask you what would be best for me to do, before I act out on what I think is best for me? You are totally right in everything you say about me and I agree with you all the way. Thanks again Eddie! You have showed me that I don´t have to look at reality in my life and that I don´t have to seek MY truth, because YOU are here to guide me!
