Thak gaya
Tu jo bhi bola
... mere sar mein atak gaya!
Ever wondered why, every soul around you is interested in passing on some of their 'royal' flaws on to you. One such bit, is the urge to advise... or even take advise.
Come on, accept it - there are only some very, very few people who have this skill and right to be entertained. Contrary to the popular line, if you've never used your own or worse still end up using only your own, you deserve to hear nothing but '...Shoo...' in varying tones of politeness (or a complete lack of it).
When you give 'advice', you just add vice to another soul. The vice of not having a spine.
Now, I strongly believe, 'consulting' is not 'advising'. When you consult/or are consulted, you impart 'information'... as in D-I-K-W (Data-Information-Knowledge-Wisdom *ting*)
Listen... Listen...Listen to the question.
Understand... or at least 'seek' to understand ONLY the question.
Clarify... not sets of morality statements, not faith, not intention... but the question.
And finally, Answer the question in question, and not your inner urge to feel like the law maker.
Have a spine? No?
You can't go get one... you gotta make your own.
Good luck.
