Do you want to be Right or do you want to be Happy?

Well, I used to be really headstrong and argue to make sure the gray areas either become white, or they are black. No such thing as gray in my dictionary. But as I grew older, add together certain events in my life, I am having a different view now. No point arguing with the obstinate. Time will always reveal the truth of the matter. So if the other party insist on their way, even when they are obviously wrong, let it be. When the results is revealed, the consequence is his/hers to bear. No point getting the blood pressure up over these kinda stuff. They never, or rather, will prefer not to see your point anyways.

LOL, my BF says that he thinks I always have to be right, me I think that happiness is the best option. I don't think I would keep on going arguing my point unless the person kept on coming back to me saying that I was wrong all the time. I am a typical Libran, I see (most of the time) both sides to each story and sometimes find it hard to actually pick a side however, if there is an underdog then I will nearly always side with them. Thanks for sharing this with us momma

I will agree to disagree. I will not argue my point if the other person isn't willing to listen and if they have a strong opinion about something then I let them be. I know I am not always right and will admit that, but will not fight heaven nor earth just to get my point across.

I believe that I should not have to sacrifice one for the other. The things and people that make me happy are in agreement with me. But if I had to choose between the two, I would rather be right than happy. Some things are to important for compromise.

I rather just be happy! I stress my point of view and then let it go! I rather agree to disagree it suits me just fine and then go about my merry way!

Happy. I don't mind agreeing to disagree but the issue comes up when the OTHER person insists on going on and on that *I* am wrong. I am NOT wrong, I just made or make a different choice. I can't see how they can't see that. That is where I get myself in trouble. It isn't about me being right per se, it is about me being right for me, and therefore happy. Many things I choose to do or the way I choose to do them are not always the most traditional accepted way, but they are ways that work for me.

I just hate arguments.Especially if they are about things which are not at all important.I just leave it and go my own way happily.Arguments with thick headed people will never get you anywhere.It is not worth putting your peace of mind and happiness at stake. But when it comes to my personal interest I stand on my ground very very firmly and do not care for anything.

I just want to be happy. It does not matter to me who is right and who is wrong. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and thoughts. I know if I am right and there is no need for me to try to persuade someone else to believe it. It is a waste of my time.

I dunno....In the Grand Scheme of things it would seem to me that arguing means that Both sides are unhappy. I'm the Kind of person who will ( for the sake of not arguing ) let the issue go , whether I'm right or wrong. I can't handle arguing in general.......it upsets my stomach....I feel like I have to puke.....and then things start to go down-hill from there! I'm happy if I'm not puking , so it's worth it to me to drop the whole argument! Great Topic Momma!!!!!!!!

What's right for me might not be right for anyone else momma. I'd much rather be happy. I'm more to the point in my life where being right doesn't matter much to anyone but me and my honey. (I'm lucky he thinks the way I do). Life's too short to worry about being right or wrong. Besides, the more you look at being right, the more you'll find people who say you are wrong....so what's the point? lolololol

I will do something that make me happy,but i will also try to do the thing which is right.But if something is wrong it does not matter because there is a saying if you want to get something you will have to loose something which is your honesty.

I really liked what you said, but do we really know if we are right or if we are happy? that is the question...

both.lol
