My life is full of opinions and so is yours, whether you know or acknowledge it or not.
No matter what topic that is of interest to me, I have an opinion. I do not always seem to agree with the majority; in fact it is quite unusual for that to be the case. Now who is more correct, me or the majority? You are entitled to your opinion just like I am.
We still have some constitutional rights, which is why this is still a home of the free and the brave. We are free to vocalize our ideas, thoughts and even whims. It does not make them true for everyone, but it allows me to state my inner most reflective opinions for people to read, take or leave. Those of us, and I have a few friends who are brave enough to say what they are thinking, will be giving their opinions on the messages of their hearts. They are not with standing the perhaps reprisal of what they think, by others. Bravo to the brave, I say! I might not always agree with your opinion, but I will support your right to say it. I know someone famous said that, but I cannot give the credit to that person, right now. I do believe and live by that. Your ideas on any subject might not be what I want to hear, but I will learn from you. I might learn that you are not of this world, but lessons are learned in many different ways; reading others material is one.
Here lies another contemplative idea for my opinion to be written on the screen. How do we know where to place our trust? I do a fair amount of research before I come to an opinion. I don’t get into a firm concentration until I gather some facts. And even after those facts are compiled, that does not mean I am set in stone.
Truth or fiction, snopes are guidelines on the net. Who do you suppose runs these?
Sites? The computer, you say? Who puts the data into those machines? There you have answered my question. People, even internet people have opinions and leanings. I have discovered I cannot always rely on either of those sites to be completely reliable. Have you ever seen an article on one of those sites that reads “unable to confirm or deny”?
Do we trust the media to reveal the entire story to us, daily? Take a look at that avenue for a moment if you would, please. One night for the proof of what I am bringing into light, sit with the remote at the high time for news presentation. Tevo one station and watch the other. If you are able to get more than 2 choose only 2 news broadcasts. Compare the contents after viewing both. You will be pumped full of what the media wants you to know from both sources. Advertisers make those stations run. Without the ads the news broadcasts would not have backing. Look what the pay scale for the Mc’s is lately. I call them master of ceremonies for a reason. Some central source gathers info for the news and it is disseminated to all who report it to you. Reporters have to have some verification of the stories. How better than to share already confirmed info with all that need it.
I have opinions, so do you. If my ideas spur you into thinking for yourself on any subject, my article has done what I intended it to do. I am not starting a fan club so don’t want you to join anything except thinking for yourself. Arrive at your opinions and know I have arrived at mine, by my own admissions.
Opinions are a fine example of relative reality. If they were the same, the world would be very boring…
