If I Am Wise ...
Written by Unity
If I Am Wise ...
As I speak words to help another, if I am wise, I will listen very closely to what I have to say.. for I am saying what I, myself, need to hear.
As I tell another what to do, if I am wise, I will listen very closely to the actio
I tell them to take ... for it is the actio
I, myself, need to take.
As I spend my time trying to get others to hear what to do for their own good and explain what they need to do to feel good, if I am wise, I will notice I,myself, have not done what I have recommended.
As I am speaking ... I do not do. I tell others to watch themselves and I stop watching myself in the process. I am working on them, instead of practicing the wisdom myself shared from my very own mouth and heart.
People come into my life so I can explain what I most need to hear. If I miss that, if I think it is only them with the problem ... I keep preaching and never go beyond to hearing my own message.
When I am wise, less and less people will show up mirroring to me what I most need to see - for I will have fixed the biggest problem of all, myself.
