Some of you may remember me asking about my needy neighbor knocking on my door. He has not knocked in one week and I have done some inner searching during that time. I decided I may have issues with wanting to control things. I also do not speak up enough. I did some reading and learned not to offer advice if I don't have to. For example, yesterday my neighbor was sitting in his truck in 95 degree weather because he was waiting for the condo manager to come back so he could drop off his new lease in person. I wanted to offer advice such as dropping it into the mail slot so he wouldn't be waiting in such hot temperatures. I bit my toungue and did not say a word. My point is I think I offerred too much advice to him in the past and thus am partially responsible for him wanting to talk to me so much. Thanks to everyone for helping me see this.
