Re:GOOD ADVICE Cizzler: We're all human, and looking at someone else's situation from a distance is alot easier than looking at our own because we're smack dab right in the middle of it. That's why time is critical. Being empathetic to other's situations may certainly alter our perspectives....eventually.
Re:GOOD ADVICE ISITOBVIOUS: It is easy to give advice when there are no emotional or physical attachments. It is easy to think with your head when you aren't faced with immediate pain/hurt/suffering for you decisions. But when you know that YOU will lose something or someone by following that advice, well then it becomes a thousand time more difficult.
He!! if I could take my own advice I would have packed up and bolted months ago. Everytime I step away I see what I should do, but when I step in, there is no way to be strong enough to do that. Still that glimmer of hope that I hope I can continue to spark.
Sometimes the advice we give to others can not be applied to ourselves! That is why it is only advice!
FWIW
