I was kicked out of debate club for arguing...

I wrote a letter this morning that may ensure that some people never speak to me again.

If that’s how it goes, so be it.

Many people are afraid to stand up and say what they think. I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because what they think might not stand up to scrutiny.

I’ve been accused of being blunt. From some, it a compliment. From others, it’s an accusation.

I like a good debate. If you think I’m wrong, just tell me. I can deal with it. Those are the qualities of my favorite people…unafraid to argue their point with the assurance that we will remain friends.

Even if when they’re wrong. Or when I am.
