Do you stand for being nice?
For doing a good job based on someone else’s standards?

Do you stand for the condition of your desk? Consistency of your scrambled eggs?
Do you stand for quiet conformity or non-violent resistance?
Do you stand for a happiness based on the sneakers you wear? The amount of memory in your laptop?
Do you stand for leaving conclusions to experts? Or perhaps questioning everything, including gravity?
Do you stand for yourself, exposed? Do you stand for others, shielding them?

Do you stand for your own integrity regardless of the price?
