I believe that should is one of the most damaging words in our language.  Every time we use should, we are in effect, saying ‘wrong.’  Either we are wrong or we were wrong or we are going to be wrong.  I don’t think we need more wrongs in our life.  We need to have more freedom of choice.  I would like to take the word should and remove it from the vocabulary forever.  I’d replace it with the word could.  Could gives us a choice, and we are never wrong.
