Loved the post...the world isn't black and white and I think people who think in those terms (without seeing the grey) are just afraid of being wrong. I'm not often wrong (thank you tummy instinct), but I'm not afraid to be. Grey person here!

People see me as a very "grey" person, which makes Marco very mad sometimes. Maybe it's my past as a journalist, but I don't like to give my opinion on controversial things, even though I do have solid opinions. For example, I'm pro-life personally, ambivalent publicly. Some may see that as cowardice, but my biggest thing is that I don't want to be drawn into an argument because I don't like to fight. Period. But I'm also very stubborn. When trying to make a decision, Marco always says that he gives me all of his advice, but then I go and do whatever I want anyway. That comes from my grandmother. Sometimes I do lose it though, like with the whole Karissa Boudreau thing I posted about on my blog. For those reading this, KB is a 12-year-old who was murdered in my hometown after being missing for two weeks. The police haven't made arrests but certain groups on Facebook are practically burning her mother at the stake and making entirely inappropriate comments and posting other garbage. After reading it, I literally lost it and tore into the people posting there. It's the first time I've done something like that in years, and it felt good to stand firm on something. But it's not something I'll likely do again for a while. And it's good for your health. In grade 10 we did heart bmp in health class in groups. My partner, somebody who jogged and was very fit, came in at 80 bpm. Me, overweight and inactive (at the time), came in at an incredible 50. She freaked out, asking how that was possible. I simple responded "Well, I don't freak out over things." Point well taken. My bmp right now is 60. No more controversy for me tonight! I know what you mean, LL.
