Loftwings and Demons

I feel like I should do something about the little voice in my head that says 'arguing things is more trouble than it's worth' even though this is often true.  I just feel like I avoid talking about things that are important to me too much.  Like sometimes it just bleeds through because it's so grating to me to never say anything at all while so many other people will freely voice their opinion, but a lot of the time I just suppress it because I hate conflict and I hate having to try to explain something when I'm frustrated because it almost never comes out the way I want it to and even if it does I feel like it won't matter.  I always feel a certain futility towards trying to convince anyone of something they don't already agree with.  Because while that may not be impossible, it still feels to me like it's incredibly difficult and unlikely.  And the resulting conflict could very well be more irritating to me than just not saying anything at all.
