Would
you
rather
be
right,
or
would
you
rather
be
happy?"
Now
that
was
a
hard
one
to
answer
when
I
was
new.
In
fact,
my
answer
back
then
was,
"But
I
was
right!
He/she/they
were
wrong!
It
has
nothing
to
do
with
being
happy!"
I
was
very
stubborn. And
by
clinging
to
my
self
righteous
pride
and
ego,
I
fought
a
lot
of
people
and
a
lot
of
things
to
maintain
my
right
to
be
right. I
paid
a
steep
price
for
this
stubbornness.
Living
in
opposition
to so
many people,
places
and
institutions
takes
a
lot
of
energy
and
it
constantly
creates
resentments.
And
resentments
will
kill
me.
In
order
to
stay
alive
I've
had
to
learn
to
forget
about
who
is right
or
wrong
and
instead
focus
on
my
part.
Mine
is
the
only
part
I
can
control,
and
if
my
side
of
the
street
is
clean
then
I
become
open
to
the
only
real
solution
to
any
situation:
forgiveness,
surrender
and
acceptance. Today
I
know
that
while
I
rarely
have
the
opportunity
to
be
right,
I
always
have
the
choice
to
be
happy.
By
doing
a
10th
step
each
day
and
looking
at
and
correcting
my
part,
I
get
to
forget
about
who
is
right,
and
I
get
to
be
happy
and
free
instead.
And
today
I'd
rather
be
happy
than
right.
