Maybe a bad day

I am just venting here !!
After arriving home, I kept thinking about today. There were heated conversations during the college meeting. I could have kept my mouth shut, but sometimes it's just difficult to be silent.

Do you try to avoid any difficult conversations during meetings? Also, as a junior faculty do you participate in the conversations during college meetings? Do you keep your conversations diplomatic ?

I don't know what I am even saying now !! Feeling frustrated and cant stop thinking about today
