Taking a Stand


Sometimes when you stand up for something, and in the end, yo feel like you fall on your face. However, sometimes what seems to be futility is really a step going forward. Sometimes you have to stand up. When we all sit down and leave things as is, there is no growth or new thinking. There would be no Google if someone had continued to sit down. There would be no internet at all if someone had continued to sit down.

Also standing up does not mean that you have to be loud. It can bea quiet and conscious choice to stand up for something. I have made several decisions quietly and people just notice that I do not take part in something or I sit quietly. There are stands that I have had to take and will continue to take. You have to be mature and know when and how to fight your battles.

Take your stand in a positive way while still being respectful to others. Stand up for what is right and just.
