Or You’ll Fall For Anything
There’s a song from John Mellencamp’s Scarecrow album titled, “You’ve Got to Stand for Something” that creeps into the forefront of my thoughts whenever I hold an opinion that contrasts with that of the majority – or maybe it’s the vocal minority. I can never tell.
“You’ve got to stand for something, or you’re gonna fall for anything” is the way Mellencamp’s lyric goes and the older I get, the more I subscribe to this credo of sorts. Maybe it stems from life experiences, both good ones and bad.
