Do we give too much credence to our random opinions?

[Anonymous]

We think every thought and feeling we have has to be championed and everyone needs to hear it and it has to be respected and so on and so forth. Half the time our opinion makes little to no difference in the decisions of others, the government, parens, even partners.

Unsolicited advice rarely goes over well. When people seek it, they generally put more value to it. Pushing our agenda onto others is unlikely to change their opinion, so we're just wasting out time and pushing people out of our life,.
