your ideas matter (the most)

never let anyone, including me, shape your ideas.

i do think my ideas are best, duh

for me they are right by default, and most certainly over yours...

i've spent my entire life thinking on them, after all

but i'm open to changing my mind,

and we're allowed to agree.

but guard your ideas with your life, with all your heart and soul.

and force everyone around you to do the same

this is a kindness, an act of generosity.

do not silence yourself.

speak.
