       That meant that no long explanation was going to perfectly cover everything that could be misunderstood either. And a person who wants you to be wrong can usually make you out to be wrong, but that’s a whole other topic altogether. It took me a while, years actually, where I felt comfortable in not being precise and thorough, trying to cover all the bases. It was just wearing me out trying to be perfect in everything I said. So, I gave it up. There was tremendous freedom in that. Once I understood that no matter how perfect I said anything, there would be people who would misunderstand it, and that I didn’t need to try to be perfect anymore, that allowed me to just say what I wanted to say and not worry about the consequences. No matter what I say, there will be a person who doesn’t get it, or someone who disagrees with it. So, in light of that, I might as well just say what I want to say and cast the care on God. I might as well be free in my speech instead of attempting to please everyone.
