Sort of Yi question

[kiya]

Thanks, Pedro, for the sage advice. I really appreciate your perspective. Don't worry, I'm not the revolutionary type; will definitely go slowly, with all deliberate speed...

(Must remember: I'm TOTALLY irresistible and charming!

)

Thanks so much, again!

ooh, sage advice, hu? c'mon, there's nothing sage about it, this is mostly common sense

I just sense from your words that you dont value yourself as much as you should, and most likely that is not justified. We are what we believe we are, and it surely doesnt hurt to once in a while shatter our own self image and see what comes up afterwards. I cant remember which hexagram LiSe says we should see ourselfs as we are, and not how we think others see us. That self imposed view is diminishing to any of us, but we usually feel conditioned by it.
I think it can be positive to shatter the idea others have from us, specially when theyre taking us for granted, and Im sure a wise person like yourself has still a lot of surprises in your trick bag. So just be yourself, and stop acting like you think you should (wise advice, hu? wish I could take some of my own advice for a change

)

Pedro, you're one heck of a great guy. Thanks so much for your generous thoughts. Once again, you're right on the money.

And I know exactly what you mean. Isn't it always the hardest thing to take our own good advice, always?
