How can we refine such a question so as to ourselves avoid misleading ourselves in our efforts to help people who seem to us --- to not know how to help themselves? How can we avoid being domineering in arrogant/self-righteous efforts to make other people be like us? How can we overcome their unappreciative and lazy habits which divert their attention from our timely and prudent suggestions? Perhaps we need to spend more time in mediation and in dialogue with others like us, so that we can together figure out how to help others with the self-assurance which will elicit their respect. We can do it for them if we all agree on how to do it for them! (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
