It’s easy to criticize. Often, I criticize those closest to me. It almost doesn’t make sense. I don’t want to enumerate anything because it’s embarrassing. I know though.
It’s easy to be critical. And fool yourself into thinking you’re being helpful. That person needs to be more active for their own health. It’s easy to think, let me tell them to exercise or let me get them something that’ll make it easier for them to be active. It’s kinda insulting; it can easily assume they’ve never thought of that. Doing that can add a pressure. That isn’t the intention, but it happens.
They probably know already. Cut them slack instead of being “helpful”. Go with them. Be part of whatever it is. Assume they know. Otherwise, it may not be helpful even if that’s the intent. Niyat matters a lot, but it’s not everything.
Taher, choose when you criticize. They probably already know.
