Ah - really? Speak up? But what if you don't want to be heard..Perhaps being quiet may be better even if it is not right. Debate or Discuss. Which one shall it be?
Many are the times, that this dilemma arises in all of us.
But here is what the Spicy Sultana whispers...
It is easy to debate the ordinary big issues - but extraordinary to debate the difficult little ones. And often there are passions involved.. in those discussions, because they are not of the mundane. Often they, much like many discussion bound to happen here - they produce a great clash of logic and emotion - always challenging the mind.
One thing is for sure - all the participants always can catch what they want from the sparks that fly to enhance themselves - a shard of knowledge to treasure or a shovel of ignorance to trash.
Many may perceive as "outbursts" , arguments when you speak up passionately on or about something you believe in. Let them. Indeed outbursts are intentional by the speaker many a time intended just to produce debate. True debates are discussions that have no therapeutic intent, certainly no attack, no intention to change anyone's lifestyle, not intended to find higher ground , no political correctness , no suppressed emotions - nothing but a deep desire just bring out to the open - the raw guts of the issue at hand to a group of people one feels close to...enough that one bares oneself. You can do nothing but to stand naked before your audience having spent your words.
The true debate then begins. In your minds.
Discussion and debate are fuel for the mind and an evolutionary life...it feeds the hunger of a thinking brain.
Now that is off my head. Oye my mind feels clear!
Tell me what you want to hear?
