and respect your right, at least granted in this country, to share your opposing views. What with this world be like if we all believed the same thing? Would it be Utopia or would all exploration, learning and questioning stop?
Could we grow change and learn without opposing views? I don’t believe so. Discussions of reasonable people can and often do change opinions. Humans grow, change and learn. We create new patterns of behavior. Some become more tolerant, others more rigid.
My father asked me a question when I was very young. “Are you strong enough to hold your head high and stand alone?” It is something that I often think about. In this world I often find myself standing alone on issues. I have come to realize that I think differently than most.
Some things are not wrong or right, they just are.
I’m right there with you I can relate to just what your saying
I’m the same way when I have something to write about or say
I have to wonder is it really worth the time if I’m alone on the

EVERYONE would like to take part in.
I admire you for being able to stand alone!!
I wish to be like you!!
