Whats your opinion

Is your opinion really yours or is it formed by hearing someone’s? Be it your friend, family or any stranger in the society?

You hear your friend saying there is good restaurant opened in the town and it is awesome. After hearing all those exciting reviews, you take happy bites, assuming it to be good. It might not be good, but you pretend that as per your friend’s review. You take up the task of passing on same reviews to others. It goes on and on. It’s true for negative case also. Even though we like something, most of the time we agree to others when they say it’s not good. Even when you have to stand for your point alone, stick to it. You don’t have to pretend to be with others. Of course, listen to others, but when forming an opinion, forget the things you heard. Think about only what you feel about it. Stand Alone, But Stand for your point.

Different people ,different perspective

I have read a story in my childhood. It is about 5 blind men describing the elephant by their touch as they come across different parts of an elephant in their life journeys. Even when you show the same thing to different people,
their version completely differs based on their experience, view and imagination. But we believe, our version is a reality, other person is completely wrong and lacks the basic understanding of things. Before you argue, before you fight,
Before you raise the voice, just think for one second that, they are a completely different person with a different perspective, which is right to them as your version is to you. This simple realisation can save ourselves from the ego and fight in future with others we face.
