Search Results: what I did wrong

I say it a lot. Online and off. Offline, my sister, (Yes, the evil, middle one again) tells me I'm wrong for saying this. She says I should stand up and defend what I believe in and stop being such a passive mouse. But she never seems very happy.

And being happy IS what I believe in. I mean, sure, sometimes I want to get into it with people both off and online but then I stop and wonder why? Like, so what if someone disagrees with me? And, so what if I put in all kinds of time and energy into proving MY point and making sure the world knows I'M right and making myself all worked up and agitated and PMSY in the mean time? Like, why bother? Is the person I'm arguing with suddenly going to "see the light" and say, "Omg! Random is SO right. I will change my entire life now!" And then the world will make a statue of me with a big plaque that says: "Random is Right"

'Cuz when I stop and think about it all, I really don't care. If you need to be right. Ok, be right. I'm gonna' go be happy. And maybe go look for some unicorns.

And so I ask, Am I wrong for saying I'd rather be happy than be right?

now that i'm an adult and can vote i've decided to become more open minded when it comes to politics. i feel i owe it to this country even tho im not even from here. you know, for the sake of others. anyway, i was raised by a maga mom and a conservative father, and became quite liberal after dealing with spiritual abuse and religious trauma. i've kinda mellowed out to the middle these days. economics i lean conservative, social issues i lean liberal. i choose what i agree with not because it is one specific party, but based on my understanding of truth, right and wrong. i've realised that both sides are kind of nuts and you really have to be discerning.

anyway, now i'm wondering, are any of you the same way? when i see someone who has STRICTLY liberal beliefs, i doubt they've come up with an original thought. same goes for people who are STRICTLY conservative. if you're conservative, what are your liberal beliefs (if any) and vice versa? if you're liberal, do you have any opinions that are generally conservative? or are you all or nothing
