Have you ever backed down after saying or doing something you felt was right but someone else felt was wrong?
Did you back down to avoid confrontation or simply because the person who confronted you scared your pants off?
Over the past couple years I’ve really grown a back bone and I am learning to not back down as easy as I once use to.
Don’t get me wrong I feel everyone should know when to pick a battle as most of the time it’s just not worth it. But sometimes things just need to be said or an opinion should just be shared and sadly some just can’t deal with it.
A friend once said to me “God can’t please everyone so why should we try?” and I thought to myself this is a really great saying because it’s true!
Think about how often people blame “god” for something wrong in the world or in their own lives.
Now think of how many times people complain about you, Probably not as often and if so then you may really have a problem..lol
I come across a lot of people who do not like or share my opinions or my work ethic or even how I live my life and that’s fine you know why?
Because they are MINE.
I don’t put guns to people’s heads and tell them THIS IS WHAT I SAID AND WHAT I SAY IS THE LAW AND YOU WILL OBEY!
I simply state what I feel and if you agree then fine if not that’s your right as well.
If however you do disagree it is not your right to slam me against a wall, Sure state your side I am always willing to listen because you never know I just may have gotten it wrong and you may very well educate me and I may then see things different.
If your one of those who tend to disagree with me that’s fine I always like a challenge. But know this I will rarely back down from something I have said or done and if I do it will be only because something has changed since I last opened my mouth.
The thing I like most about living in a free country is that I can have my own opinions and I do not have to follow a crowd, I can stand on my own two feet and say what I please because it’s my right!
