Ran across something similar tonight: I asked someone for their opinion on something, then decided to go a different direction... they threw a fit and said "You don't respect my opinion! You don't trust my judgement! You just don't listen to me." Hey, asking for your input is simply that - wanting to hear input. I'll still make my own decision in the end... Why so defensive?

@katConfidential Sounds like the 'exchange rate' on this person's POV wasn't nearly as sweet as he or she thought it would be. lol

Good on ya for trusting your OWN gut.

People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.

In my opinion less hate and superiority would be nice. Reading comments about the current economy, shootings ect can really be a test. P.S. You look fabulous!

@battim  me too!

Exactly! I'm so tired of the moral crusader mentality that opinions are sacred things and to ever challenge or think less of one is reprehensible. Please. Challenging opinions is what's allowed society to grow. I'm willing to accept that there exist opinions that are more intelligent and insightful than mine, why can't others. Because they're too busy with their heads up their ass.
