True to your beliefs

Oh yeah, I stand firmly and I get mocked and remarks made about me..But I won't budge, because I know the truth and if one wants to be blissfully ignorant, that is their problem..

If you do not stand by your beliefs, then you do not really have any.

While we're on quotes here (I see an above poster has posted one), another great one comes from Winston Churchill. He said, "You've got enemies? Good. That means you have stood up for something sometime in your life." Also, as country singer Aaron Tippin's working man's anthem goes, "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything..." I am honestly not a very opinionated person in social situations. I used to be more outspoken but I think the fact that I have very thin skin put an end to that. I am used to being in the minority among those around me when it comes to beliefs/points of view, etc. That doesn't mean I will change so readily. Only experience and logic can make me change my mind about anything. I am rock solid in my every thought, sometimes so much so that it is almost frightening. I still never waver though. This is all usually in silence and occasionally in writing and my performances and artwork as I do not enjoy debates/heated discussion.

I'm stubborn for sure. If I believe in something strongly, I don't care how many disagree.

I stand for my beliefs. I once had to fight me free and payed a very high price for that. If I would give up my beliefs now just to fit into the group or keep the peace I would give up myself. Which is the worst thing I can do. It's me I have to live with not with the others.

No...not really. Just today my friend at school was badmouthing my bff and I badmouthed my own bff a little bit too due to the pressure but I didn't really want too... I feel horrible and tomorrow I will walk to my so called friend and defend my bff. I'm gonna tell my bff what I did and that I'm sorry.
