Being right...

Hello again... two in two days, things are getting a little out of hand. First of all, the only conflict people had with my choice of Cavs players was Z starting over Shaq. But I think that if he is being so passive and supportive, "coach" brown will choose to bring him off the bench in a supportive role. Z always starts out fast, hits his first three or four mid ranger jumpers, then can ride the bench for awhile. So I think Shaq coming in at 8 mins in the first would be a perfect fit for our rotation. I think I'm right on this one...

And speaking of being right... I had a conversation tonight with some close friends about how it seems like I always think that I am right in whatever I say. Now I a, the first to admit that this may be true. I am definitely opinionated, and I am not afraid to express my feelings. But the point with which I had to argue was the idea that I seem like I think that I am always right. Whether you are passive or neutral or shy or quiet, do you not always think that your own opinion is "right" based on how you feel and your beliefs? Why would you ever feel a specific way if you didn't stand behind it and think that it was right. I just think it's funny when people say to me, "You always think you're right," because... yes, I do think that I am always right. Now someone else can absolutely have a completely different opinion than me, but they sure better think that THEY are right, or else what is the point of their opinion besides playing devil's advocate, right?

To balance out that thought though, I also do feel a lot of times that people find me to be harsh or overly opinionated. I can definitely see where that perception comes from, and it is something that I would like to change as time goes forward. While I do like to argue and converse and see others' views, the last thing I want is for people to think that they can't be honest or open with me because I value my own opinion more than others'. That is the furthest thing from the truth, and if I ever seem as if I am implying that CALL ME OUT on it and I swear I'll do my best to change.

You know who I love? Sloan
