There were times in the past that when I was having a discussion, whether it was regarding politics, religion or even sports, I'd get emotional if I felt the other person(s) were so contrary to my feelings. This didn't happen very often, but when it did I felt like you know what!
I've now given myself time, thought and effort to handling these situations better on my part. This occurred on two separate occasions recently. In both instances, the other
participants" had strong opinions regarding the topics we were discussing. In one, about college sports, this particular individual felt that one school had better student/athletes than their opponents, because he assumed his team had better grades and didn't get into any altercations while the student/athletes from the other school probably did. My response to him was that that's labeling a group of people without any proof and that in this country our belief that one is innocent till proven guilty. Especially, since there wasn't any indication of any wrong doing.
