right and wrong

We like to be right.  It is much more enjoyable than being wrong.  We all like to be right, but it is impossible for everyone to be right all the time.  We are such dualists.  We almost always measure a thing by whether or not we are for or against it.  Consequently, if we take that approach, some will be right and some will be wrong on any given topic.

A friend reminded me that life is not always about being right.  Sometimes life just must be lived.  Sometimes we have to just let a thing lie and live our lives.  We can't fix everything and I don't want to spend my life being angry about what I can't control.  Life is good, and it is too short to be dominated by negative unhappy thoughts.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
