"The question to ask ourselves; "Would you rather be right or would you rather have peace?" Some battles are worth fighting, and some are not.If being "right" is more important than having peace, and the cause doesn't evolve or enhance life, then we must ask ourselves; "why do I need to be right?"The question to ask in our own lives. At our work, within our homes and in our global community."
