You Don't Have To Take It
Just because people talk smack, doesn't mean you have to listen to it.
Just because people talk shit, doesn't mean you have to eat it.
Some people like to tear stuff down. You don't have to join them.
The world, in so many different arenas, seems to have a vocal minority and a silent majority. Many people assume that if you're not yelling, you must be agreeing with the yellers. These people are mistaken.
So, if you don't agree, you might want to say so. Don't let your silence be mistaken for assent.
If you believe in something, speak up.
If you see a wrong being committed, take action.
It's important that you live, not just that you breathe.
