When I see someone make a decision that I suspect might lead to problems or if they make a bad decision that I have made , Sometimes I will shake my head, but not say anything. [Unless they ask.]
If I shake my head at these people, I am really shaking my head at myself. I would like to think of myself as being non-judgemental. To be so is hurtful, arrogant, and they may need the lesson as much as I did. It is more likely though, that my mind or ego will slip out of it's cage once again, to be silently judgemental. My mind /ego is much more clever now than it used to be. [Who am I to be judgmental of anyone or anything??? If I am such a big cosmic hotshot, how is it I have to wonder where the money will come to pay my student loans from?
I guess this is the difference between learn from other people's experiences. Admitting I too could experience this reaction, instead of saying I would never put myself in a position to experience this reaction. Who knows what could happen if I let mind or ego take control and run with it.
For this reason alone, it is ALWAYS nice to see these reminders!
