Sometimes we ask for advice and this is what Khalil Gibran has to say about that:
"Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them."
Asking someone's advice is a form of respect. You ask it knowing full well you have come to your own conclusion. It is an intelligent person who can ask for token advice with an open mind, then have the humility to realize he had initially come to the wrong conclusion and willingly heed the advice. M. Beatty
TOKEN ADVICE
Advice is but a token need
Asked in true respect
It's not asked with intent to heed
It is rare that we accept
But the thoughtful people who know their mind
Have the insight to rearrange it
When they ask for advice of any kind
Their conclusion they might change it
