  Everyone has an opinion of some sort.  There are all sorts of opinions.  Some of these that come from some sort of investigation.  There are also those that come from people who have limited understanding of what they have their opinion about.  Some opinions originate as a result of what someone tells someone else.
  If there is one thing I strive to do, it is to try to base my opinion on facts.  I need a lot of evidence to convince me of something.  I hate just going by someone’s word because people lie a lot and I also do not like to depend on other people.  There are exceptions to this, of course.  Sometimes it is appropriate to go by someone’s word alone.  It just depends what the issue is.
  The thing about opinions is that they are not fact.  Therefore, the matter of them having a base in fact or not having a base in fact is not truly significant.  It is just something that I get frustrated by and I guess that I might not even have a right to be frustrated by this.  It just seems like sometimes the world is out to get you.  Trivial events are inflated into large ordeals that are wastes of time for everyone involved and sometimes even those who are uninvolved.
  It is like when Jamie and I talk about life having an undo button.  Such simple actions can cause devastation.  It is scary to think that one action can have so many consequences.  I guess it makes me appreciate even more that life itself is fragile and that everything within it can be the same.  Hopefully it can be as easily swayed the other way in order to remedy the situation.
  I guess I just get tired of people wanting something to talk about.  Gosh, and people with their power complexes, they kill me.  It is time for people to get lives.  At the same time I feel sorry for them.  If that is the only thing that gives their life meaning, then I wonder about how happy they can truly be.  I just think that there are more important things to concentrate on.
  Eventually it will all blow over, but these things have a way of haunting people.  There are grudges that are held and sometimes people just really like to be able to point fingers.  I guess it is just something that I need to accept because I cannot change someone’s personality.
  I do not think that I will be updating again before I leave for work, but I could be wrong.  In any case, I will return eventually.  Enjoy your summers, everyone.
