It's hard to do the right thing without making a big point of it... of proving myself right... of trying to make the other person realize that they are wrong.
Sometimes, though, it's just best to make a decision and stick with it. Then move on. And to do it without editorial content, and without further explanation. Sometimes, explanations don't help. If there was further room for explanation, these decisions wouldn't have to be made in the first place. Sometimes.
Disengage.
I was raised in atmosphere of us-vs-them, crush-or-be-crushed. But life isn't like that. It's possible to make decisions based on fact, without animosity, and without anger. And to stick with them.
I think I might be a grownup after all. Sometimes.
Love to all. Even you, the guy making crazed, sweeping gestures at a maltese.

Rock on, brother. Here's to being a grown-up, even when nobody notices.
