Someone has been preaching to you for quite a while, and their sermon is getting a bit tiresome. They think what they have to say is terribly important, while you just think it's just terrible! So let them know today that you really don't plan on taking their advice. And that while you appreciate the special interest they've had in you and how you should run your life, you don't need them to waste any more of their energy on you. Give them permission to brighten someone else's life.
