Chapter 65: Let's Talk About Opinions

Another post, another opportunity spent idling time and energy away. Chalk one more up to procastination.

But moving on to the main point of the post of today, I have to wonder, what exactly are our views on reality?

In other words, what kind of rules do we derive from how we see the world? Maybe we might not see it that way, but most of us live by a set of personal rules.

Sometimes, these are partly or completely derived by outside influences and the environment.

But what I am interested in is, how our personal perspectives of what we see affects these sets of rules.

Unless we are really obedient to our peers and fellow men, we are very likely to be extremely subjective in almost everything we do.

That is to say, the rules we derive are have general similarities to each other, either due to cooperative influences from each other, or from living in the same environment or reality, or perhaps from adaption itself.

For me, whatever I have written in this post all comes from the set of rules I live by. I feel that this means we should try our best to respect each other's opinions.

Of course, it is possible that being in positions of greater powers tempts us to believe we should make the ultimate set of rules and suppress that of others who may oppose us.

Is this what the world really is about? After all, in my humble opinion, no matter how hard you try, you cannot change the human heart. With two feet in the coffin, it is ultimately your own will you take with you, not that of others.

Supression and taming of the spirits of others seems futile.

But, I suppose, that is up to what you think.

Until then.
