Life's too short to sit around and fight with people about yourself trying to make them accept you - if they don't then send 'em packing....I've found that more open-minded and accepting people are just naturally better people

Exactly. I'll take my own company over some jackass's who thinks poorly of me. And you're right about the open-minded people just being better company. They're nicer people. I was watching Oprah today and this 10 year old girl has cancer and when her hair fell out most of her friends fell by the wayside. But she retained three and they are her closest, best friends. They probably will be for a long time. The other ones, not worth a baby strand on her fine, new head of hair.
