There are matters that are too important to ignore or leave to chance. These are salient moments.
Make a statement. Avoid questioning.
And by questioning, I mean the assumptions that other human beings draw about you based on very little information.
For some reason, we, as people, feel no need to apply facts when it comes to deciding who somebody really is, since they haven’t clearly stated their position one way or another.
This quick-to-the-punch evaluation can be based on facial expression, body language, race, gender, sexual orientation or whim.
If you don’t make a statement about things in life, you leave it to others to come with the questions, or to question for themselves and then form conclusions–which more than likely will be far from true.
Yet, because we have become so politically correct, afraid to voice an opinion for fear of being offensive, answers like “I don’t know” or “that’s a tough one,” or one I personally disfavor, “I guess it depends on the circumstances,” are prevalent.
Make a statement. Avoid questioning.
Let me give you some examples:
- I do not believe in killing anything unless I plan on eating it.
- I also decided not to judge anyone at any time unless I’m wearing a long, black robe and have a gavel in my hand (so far no offers).
- Every week I evaluate my compassion, success and motivation on whether I end up giving more than taking.
- And I freely admit that I’m a bigot. I favor one race. The human race.
So there you go.
Because I make statements, you don’t have to exhaust yourself coming up with a list of inquiries or challenging me in your private thoughts, developing your own profile about me.
So here is your salient moment:
If you’re not afraid to make a statement about what you believe, then you won’t have to field so many questions about what truly and honestly is in your heart.
