A Thoughtful Day

Think

I’d rather live in a land of hurt feelings than be enslaved by political correctness.

The movements to limit how we think and talk may be the next great challenge to American freedom. My point here is not that we should disregard people and their feelings but we should be careful that we do not give up our freedoms of thought and expression. In a free society with wide varieties of people, there are bound to be things at which people take offense. I am aware that there are things offensive to me daily. I refuse to force my sensibilities on everyone else. I love freedom too much. Freedom plus diversity will equal offenses. Do we want to give up all freedoms to ensure there are no offenses? We should ask ourselves how far our love for freedom goes and where do we draw the line. It is worth discussion and thought.

When confronted by life’s negativities don’t forget that there are millions of positive things happening and millions of good people working to make things better. Don’t give up. Don’t give in. Give these things a thought and a chuckle.
