I Did What Was Right

Even though I paid the price, I wouldn't undo anything.

Sometimes, when no one has the balls to stand up, you'd be surprised to find yourself doing what you hope others have been doing in the first place. I don't know how much I have to say this over and over, but always

stand up against oppression.

Don't ever be afraid to speak up. Even if you've been groomed to shut up and suck it: defy all rules to make sure what is right is upheld.

When you follow a ruler whose neither credible, nor honest, nor fair, and has a knack of getting away with things because they run their kingdoms by instilling fear, it is a deviance to speak up against the autocracy. You are rebellious instead of having a healthy debate over matters. So as a decision maker where you're decisions are trampled "just because" it doesn't follow the dictatorship direction, you should expect that it's going to be off with your head. When you're expected to shut up because money is shoved at your mouth and how dare you say something against it, like Kim Jong Il: it's off with your head.

And off with my head it is.

And I'd face the guillotine anytime of the day, if it's for a good cause. I did what was right, and I will keep on doing what is right, instead of selling my soul and be paid to shut up.
