Influence

I get a little titchy when I feel like someone is trying to influence me. But then I realise that perhaps I have been trying to influence them in a different direction.

Watching or reading something might not be on my agenda at the time but thinking about mind stuff might not be on theirs if I try to broach it later .

So I decide whether or not to do what is presented to me mindful that they will do the same when I air my interest. Sometimes I see the value in their request and other times I decline.

After all, it is a free world with each of us free to indicate our personal preferences. And most times that's just what we need to do.
