In this country we all have the right to our opinion. That, however, does not make all our opinions right.
While I have no problem with people being sensitive to each other's situations, we may want to examine the extent to which so many seem to go just to make sure we don't offend.
It seems as if so many people are letting others get away with doing the wrong thing, simply because they are afraid to stand up for what is right and wrong.
We all see things on a daily basis that we know are wrong, yet we fail to speak out simply so we don't offend the other person.
Well the truth is, we can't be all things to all people. I don't advocate going out of our way to be sure we offend, but if we don't offend someone, we really aren't doing much with our lives.
If we take a look back in history, even the greatest people we can think of had someone opposed to them. It is the people who live a life of quiet, that also lead a life of quiet desperation.
Stand up for what you believe. You will offend somebody, but it's better than being a nobody.
Stand for something. Be passionate about what you do. These two things often lead to great success!
