Best intentions aren't always right.
We all try to do our best for others and ourselves. Yet, despite our best intentions, our advice can sometimes be wrong. We just need to hope that the person we give the faulty advice to, understands we meant no harm and even could not have known better ourselves. As long as we know that our heart was in the right place, we can take comfort in trying to help others even when our advice is wrong.
Book Excerpt
Cold Feet
Ashley’s eyes close and she begins to sob silently. I sit beside her and put my arm around her. “It’s okay. Talk to me. What is the problem?”
Ashley cries for a long time and then finally she calms enough to stop crying. I have given her all my tissues and she blows her nose again and dabs at her makeup which is ruined. At least she has time to fix it before the reception. She doesn’t have to attend but normally she does.
She becomes silent for a moment and then finally, trusting her voice to be stable she tells me what has her so upset. “The bride had cold feet because… because she thinks the groom is cheating on her.”
The words hit me like a Mack truck. “What? Are you serious?”
Ashley nods her head and, as she begins to cry again, she manages to say, “I may have convinced the bride to marry a cheater!”
