I used to have expert advice. Sure…just ask me. 🙂

I could tell you what you should do, when you should do it, and how you should do it.

Didn’t matter whether you asked for it or not. I was good about passing along (unsolicited) advice.

I can’t really remember when I “wised” up. How old I was. Who told me to “shut my mouth and listen for a change.”

As you know, there is both good and bad advice.

You gotta wonder who is giving some of the athletes advice on finances. I mean, it seems incredible to me that someone who has made multi-millions files for bankruptcy.

You gotta wonder who is giving them advice on how to conduct their lives, what to put into their body, how they can cheat the system.

You gotta wonder who is giving Justin Bieber Miley Cyrus these young singers and actors advice on how to live their lives. They are doing a terrible job.

You gotta wonder who is giving some of the young pastors advice on how to conduct their lives with dignity and respect for others.

Here is something I read:

“The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools pour out folly…The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools.” Pr.15:2,7

Now THAT is good advice!

Are you a giver of (unsolicited) advice? How well do you take advice from others? Do you say anything to anyone who hands down unwanted advice to you?
