Summary

The Discussion | All for Fun: Let's wrap this up! Uncover the power of calm reasoning over emotional arguments. Take a moment to breathe and consider the insights shared here

Let’s end the discussion. Let’s not talk about it anymore. We are talking in circles. We have a difference of opinion. Neither of us are willing to compromise.

My argument is articulate and solid. Your argument is fueled by emotions. You have a few valid points. There is some wisdom behind your argument. But my muscles are larger than yours. Case closed.

I am not saying that force is a possibility. What I am saying is that calm reasoning muscles out emotions. Even when those emotions are packed with sound reasoning.

Let’s take a deep breath and think for a few moments. Think before we say anything else. I have nothing else to say on the matter. I have proven my points. It would be wise for you to shut your pretty mouth for a while as well.

We both should stand still and be quiet before we topple over the deep end of constructive conversations. This is what I propose. Place your trust in me as being a soaring tower of insight and perception.

Have unlimited confidence in my thoughts, words, and actions. Do this knowing that I have your good will uppermost at heart. Appreciate that my judgments and reasoning as properly vetted, timestamped, and grounded.

Not that I know everything, but I’m close to. So close that the knowledge of everything and I are adjoining neighbors. So close that when I sneeze the knowledge of everything says gesundheit.

I don’t question that your intellect and powers of discernment are far reaching. That you have a logical analytical mind. What I am questioning is your ability or your willingness to bend. I am not asking you to break. I am not asking you to set aside your core beliefs. What I am asking you is to have conviction in my extraordinary wisdom and command of all-knowing.

This is not hard. This should be as easy as falling to your adorable knees before me. Just kidding. Or maybe not. No, just kidding. Don’t take that seriously. Or maybe you should. No, don’t.

What you should take seriously is that I always have your best interests in mind. I make mistakes. Though rare. I can get it wrong. Though the odds of that happening are nine to the one millionth power of probabilities.

We both have said enough for now. Not in temper. Not in loudness. Not to win an argument. But as a way of gaining a better understanding of how our individual nut and bolts fit in our relationship.

Do not dive into self-deception or be dismissive. My knowledge is immaculate and unadulterated. When I speak flowers blossom and birds sing. Groundhogs come out of their borrows to listen. Lightening stops in mid strike.

This being the case, what should you do when I give you words of knowledge and wisdom? Shut your beautiful mouth and listen. That’s what you should do.

End of discussion.
