Giving an opinion is to open a window to one’s perspective It can require introspection but is far from always definitive People usually want it to be objective While opinion, to me, can be nothing but subjective
Opinions lie on knowledge and experience Two things that bolster one’s body of evidence Establishing a thin or thick line of reference To which we all offer multiple marks of deference
Could that explain why it’s always so difficult to make it budge? Is it like becoming a referee or embodying a judge? Are there any rules that should be strictly followed? Any piece of advice, decisive, immutable, somebody ever sold? What’s sure is that everyone’s entitled to an opinion, I’ll never hold a grudge Because rejecting exchange would be nothing but a smudge.
When not arguing facts, is anybody really right or wrong? I would like to believe so depending on the subject One decisive element should unarguably be the context Because without weak there’s obviously no strong.
The ultimate key lies in the word “listening” Socrates used to say “I know that I know nothing” If so, what do I know? I’m asking! If you bring your ear closer, you could hear just something That might uncover a clue, changing Just a little or more of what you’ve been believing Altering your opinion on a specific matter Making you nothing more than a bit wiser.
A quote from Confucius goes like this: Learning without thinking is useless. Thinking without learning is dangerous. It is not just good to base our reflexion on what we know, it is a necessity.
