Likewise, the fact that I've been you makes it even more so. I believe in experience; and our ability and responsibility to draw conclusions from that experience and speak the truth that we see, especially when it's inconvenient. I believe in the ability and need to have different, peacefully coexisting views and explanations; to stand up for who we are, and accept others for who they are. I don't believe in blindly trusting authorities while ignoring experience and shaming others into silence to protect the insanity.
