and is ready to share those opinions -
labeling them as "truth."
Sometimes it is relatively easy

than to raise our filter of skepticism
and ask the hard questions.

not to be ecstatic is simply unnecessary.
To be ecstatic is natural, spontaneous.

to maintain it is really difficult,
because you are doing something against nature.
- Osho

who have convictions that are unpopular.
Now at what point does an unpopular conviction

and I find it hard to be in their company most of the time.
