Is the purpose sitting there passively saying 'ya, you can't make me do anything' or are you going to do something with that? :)

- Mezzie 4y agoAn example from my life is that I'm very hard to bully/persuade to let things go/get to accept bad decisions. Usually, the impetus behind shutting up and going along is that speaking up will have ramifications on one's career. However, I have MS, which means I had to come to terms with possibly losing my career randomly no matter what I say or do. So it's not really something that can be held over me anymore. I'm way more stubborn post diagnosis because I promise you (whoever you are) are way less scary than the fact that I might wake up and never walk again. In my life this manifests through a willingness to speak up for those lower on the totem pole, to call people out on being manipulative assholes, and a willingness to take bolder decisions because I've been through worse, so come at me, bro.
