I wonder how quiet this world would become if we stopped voicing our disagreements to opposing opinions!
Everyone has a right to their opinion and to speak their truth. All too often it is at the risk of an adversary refuting their words, just for the sake of it. Why is it so difficult to “just let it go at that’?
I refuse to get into political or religious frays. I really do believe everyone has their right to their opinions and convictions, and to publicly state them without hearing from me, as long as it isn’t directly affecting my life. I think opinions are personal business. They’re meaningful only to the person expressing them.
Someone visits a friend in the hospital, walks into the room and says, “I wanted to bring you a bouquet of flowers”…..but didn’t! Words of air…meaningless, like my opinion….unless someone solicits it or hands me the bouquet!
There’s no honor in belittling anyone, or disagreeing with someone just for the point of it. I know this. I spent years living this chaotic and deprecating lifestyle …pointing my fingers so loudly…. not to have others point fingers at me!
I don’t want to be in the fight any more. I will never compromise my integrity nor my truth….I just have to feel it, and live it. I’m the one who has to be at Peace and no one has to agree with me to make this happen.
I almost feel like a Freedom Fighter….. You want an apple, I want an orange…. Truce! Let’s sit at the Table of Life and eat together. If we both enjoy the same fruits…. let’s join a pod of like minds and dine on Life together.
