Would you rather be right or happy? I have heard this saying throughout my life and have always chose happiness..... There were times where I wanted to just choose being right, but then I realized it wasnt worth the effort. Plus I figured in the end the truth always comes out some way or another.

In my case at this time, I am dealing with a very delicate situation involving just the point you are discussing here. I made a choice to extract myself from the situation, rather than keep fighting for justice (right) as it was not beneficial to my health at this time. In the end, I feel that this way I can preserve my sanity (happiness) and also await the day when the light and truth will come out in my favor ..this may never happen, but at least I know the truth.

When you try to be right you often get yourself in trouble and you think it's not worth the effort. But if you choose to be happy and you know it's not right and that other people also depend on you to be 'right' then you will not be 100% happy. Over all, it has to depend on when we need to choose right and when we need to choose happiness. Hard to choose isn't it?

I'm having trouble coming up with a scenario to help me choose what I'd pick.
