TRUST YOUR INTELLIGENCE, YOU ARE THE BEST JUDGE FOR YOURSELF!
Often we are influenced by others opinions in our personal matters as well. It is okay, if we have sought their advice but not okay if the advice is unsolicited.
As far as possible, we should decide what is good and what is not so good for us, as we know our capability, our temperament, our likes/dislikes, the circumstances in which are and so on.
No one can appreciate our mental state and/or situation, howsoever close that person may be. So, let’s respect others opinions. Consider if we must, but adapt/change their advices to our circumstances and needs before accepting.
May God bless us with the wisdom to rely on our own opinions more than others’ opinions!
Tathastu! Swasti Siddham! Amen! So Be It!
