Shout it or shut up ?

Tension , fear , excitement , inclusion, they make us feel like we want to shout out , to express our opinion , to scream . Why do I feel the need to comment on every post and share all my opinions with the world . It’s a push and pull for me. When I have something to say I want to say it , because I know that I will regret it if I don’t l on the other hand  there’s a power in the silence of saying nothing at all. If I say I’m voting democrat than I’ll anger the republicans ; if I say I’m voting republican I’ll anger the Democrats. However , if I vote quietly and don’t tell anyone who I’m voting for , than I won’t anger anyone, but I also won’t be able to persuade them as to why they should vote my way . In order to win an election than we need to come out and vote in large numbers. So if the democratic candidate wants to win , they rely on the vote of democrats and some swayed  republicans also. Maybe this is why debates are important , if we can open our minds a little and come to an agreement then, then our voice becomes bigger and more powerful . So is it better to speak your mind and ruffle feathers or  stay quiet to keep the peace?
