For Everything There Is An Opinion

    In today's world people have a bunch of access they never had. Access to personal information, access to knowledge, access to your life and access to voice their opinion on a international scale. Let us be clear, I am no different. Writing this blog post I am taking advantage of the opportunity afforded to me via freedom of speech and the internet blogging world. I have found that over the evolution of just a few decades that opinions have become a huge part of our lives. Back in the "day" you were taught to hold your tongue and mind your own. This seems to no longer apply. With heightened "access" people feel now more than ever that they can weigh in on every intimate detail of your life, your family and promptly step in the second you are "doing it wrong." Car seats, baby wearing, essential oil usage, homeschooling, breastfeeding, just to name a few..... I know there are so many more. What used to be a way to gain knowledge is now used to impose your beliefs on everyone else. Can we say "there's a link for that?" Any boob can post an article, I have two and HERE I am. But the point is simply this. Have compassion for one another and instead of bullying your ideas upon the masses become a friend and help someone. For those of you itch finger copy and paste Linky Lou's, I can link you to tons of research that says having compassion and being nice works. :) And, I suppose if all else fails........ "you catch more flies with honey."
