I guess for the most part, I would rather be happy, than right. Inside I know I am right, but he will have the pleasure of believing he was right, too. But in some cases, I think being right is not just a decision, it is a matter of principle. Such as matters of religion. My H questions the Bible, which we should do, anyway, otherwise how do you learn anything? But he said something once or twice about going to another church with different beliefs than ours. I and our S both spoke up and said we wouldn't leave our church. To me, if I were to do that, it would be like denying my faith for the sake of being happy instead of being right, and in the end I wouldn't be happy anyway.
So, I say decide to be happy rather than right in the small stuff, and in things that are too important or are a matter of principle, being right is right. L
