Mac vs. PC. Ford vs. Dodge vs. Chevy. These are ongoing disputes that will never be settled, because someone is always for one or the other. Yet we still can’t let it go, can’t quit arguing for what we believe.
I can see the benefits to both sides of each debate, even those I don’t gravitate to. I’ll confess, I am an Apple person myself, but I can understand that PCs are better for gamers.
Because I’m not a gamer, but instead a designer, I’m not going to push a gamer to choose a Mac just because that is my preference. I’ll let them choose what they would prefer to use. My ego doesn’t force me to need other people to approve of my personal laptop, or the pickup I drive.
Here’s the deal. Two people very close to me own Dodge pickups, and so far, two for two, Dodge’s aren’t totally reliable. The computers in them have gone out, the four-wheel drive comes and goes (but mostly goes). They aren’t very steadfast, but yes, they have power.
Good work, Chrysler, you made a product with muscle. My friend over here, though, Person A, drives a Dodge. Because of the bad history with Dodges, I could tell him what I know, but if a Ram is what he prefers to drive, I just keep my mouth shut.
The same goes with religion. I know that this is a touchy topic, and I don’t mean to step on any toes, but I get extremely frustrated by people who force their beliefs on others. People feel they need to be saved and once they have, they need to tell everyone, so that they can be included as well. They don’t realize that not everyone works that way! Be humble, love God all you want, but if I choose to find Him in everyday life instead of church, I shouldn’t be condemned. This is what I believe is right for me. Let me be, and I will do my very best to give you the same courtesy. It’s your right, just as it is mine.
Choose your computer, your vehicle, your God. For an understanding, not-discriminating country, we aren’t very open individuals. We don’t all need to drive the same vehicle, look, dress, and think the same. This is the very aspect of individuality. Be proud of who you are—but more importantly, respect who the next person desires to be.
