If you're going to have enemies, let it be because of something that occurred between you and them--NOT them and someone else.
Stop being mad just because someone else is mad! What is it with this madness transferring business, as if you don't have a mind of your own?
Some people have a habit of tossing your name in a situation, as if it makes their opinion, plan, or action more legitimate.
You just can't hop on every bandwagon just because you know the driver. Sometimes, you have to let people know you DON'T agree, and give them the reasons why. If they get mad, well....
What IS it that keeps us silent when we should speak up? Sometimes it is necessary to say, even to oneself, "You are wrong, you messed up, your behavior was inappropriate, and your estimation of that individual/situation is way off. You need to examine yourself and apologize".

Who's keeping you bound to them with an expectation that you support their jacked up behavior towards others--others who have done NOTHING wrong to you? What relationships and opportunities are YOU missing out on because you choose to believe a liar, pal around with a bully, or assume the role of Yes Man to some self-absorbed twit who has a habit of speaking for you, or telling you what you're supposed to think?
It’s a shame to be in possession of the greatest supercomputer known to man, and allow someone else to program it to benefit themselves , and make you appear inept and weak.
Have a mind of your own.
Wow! This is a great word to the wise and those who aspire to "greatness"!
