The most important person for you is YOU. We often go to friends for guidance, but why? What don't we see, trust, or know that our friends do?
At best, you can filter what your friends say to you regarding a relationship, friendship, business, etc. Remember, your friends' guidance is filtered through their perceptions of life and their teachings.
Their truth is not your truth because they don't know you thoroughly and completely. We hide and share what we want.
Imagine being content in your relationship, loving life with your partner, when a friend shares discouraging news of potential infidelity. Will you believe them and spiral into suspicion, or will it confirm your intuition of unfaithfulness?
Either way, you have a choice: let what they say go, or become a detective and look for evidence, which you will always find.
What do YOU feel? Never mind what your friends (or foes) say; you are at the cause of determining your life and your path forward.
Seek agreement, and you will find it. Seek disagreement, and you will see it. You are powerful. Believe in yourself. Enjoy living in a fantasy land. Let others be wrong or right about you. Choose yourself first, always.
You might have been that friend who said something someone was not ready to hear. Life goes along like this: we teach and learn all in the same conversation. We're a victim one minute and empowered the next.
I've guided friends when I felt something was out of alignment; it's my work, too. As an intuitive guide, I help people listen to their higher selves, a.k.a. their intuition.
I often have something to share, whether asked or not, and I have worked on staying in my lane.
You might have that problem, too. You are holding back what you want to say based on what you see or perceive. Remember, while everybody has free will, planting seeds is a thing. Only plant if you intend to water that garden, and with love above all else.
I extend widespread apologies to all those with whom I shared my intuitive knowledge without asking. If I helped you, I'm happy I could contribute. If I didn't, I genuinely apologize.
Where can you offer the same to your friends? Can you say you're sorry when you were wrong? Be the best human being you can be for yourself, and all else will align properly with the correct timing. You don't have control over that, but your higher self does.
The foundation is to trust yourself. Start there. When you say you don't trust someone, it is you who you do not trust. It's an excuse to blame others for not trusting your gut. C'mon, you know what I'm talking about. I know you want to be a victim, and I get it; really, I do; just give yourself a timer on the self-pity party so you can empower yourself along the way.
You learned something and now have the tools to make better choices. Do that: make better choices. Make different choices. Choose a different path next time. You CAN do it. I have faith in you. We all do, as your Spirit Guides report. So next time you go to your friends for sympathy or guidance, consider prefacing it with, no matter what they share, I will make my own choice that feels right for me. Take back your power.
All is well. You got this. Sending love to you across the screens.
