Why I'm (almost) Always Right

I'm (almost) always right. Or so I think. And this has been pointed out to me recently and to be honest - I won't deny it. Not only do I think I'm always right - I almost always am. Or at least on the issues that I care to speak passionately about. On other topics - being right or wrong is not an issue and my oppinion will be held loosely and my tongue will be (mostly) silent.
There are certain issues that go beyone oppinion - they are a universal truth that is known deeply by the soul and (all) too often disregarded by the rational(izing) mind. The topic I discussed yesterday is an example - I am right that these animals are suffering and deserve (much, much) better. The heart doesn't debate this - maybe the mind of few will do so but their heart will know the truth. Now please don't get me wrong, I'm saying I'm right but that's not entirerly true - I'm right not becuase I say I am (ego) but because my spirit alignes itself with a self (soul) evident truth. It's easy to be right when the world is viewed from the heart. It's not always to live this truth though. You see when you're right it may appear that you are attempting to make others wrong - if I do so I apologize. Ego does (often) get in the way of almost every message. It's the ego that debates right vs. wrong and picks the side that wins or loses. It's spirit that awakens. Yet sometimes strong words, words that may seem harsh even, are needed to help spark the light of awakening. So does this mean that one is more "advanced" then another? Or on a great spiritual plane of existence? No. It only means that by grace and by privledge one has been granted a moment of clarity on a certain matter - and wishes (compelled) to share it. Honestly I could care less about being right or wrong (but it's fun to debate)  - I only care about being true to myself and my path to the best of my ability. I care about helping others and helping them on their path. And in the end - if the path we each choose has heart - we'll meet maybe somewhere in the middle - and together reach the end.
