This is one that I wrote a while ago, but I felt that this blog could use some more entries.
It seems that more and more, people have outlets where they can force their opinion on anyone who can click a mouse. My problem is that it seems many of the people doing the mouse-clicking have become human sponges. People can't seem to form their own opinions anymore.
"I read that the new Transformers movie sucks. Let's see something else."
"I heard that James is a jerk."
"No thanks, my friend told me roast duck tastes awful."
People need to start thinking for themselves. How can you know anything if you don't find out for yourself? How will you know the Transformers movie sucks unless you see it? What if you end up loving it? You can't know until you do it yourself. The same goes for any situation I can think of. You can't know that something is good, bad, or O.K. until you experience it yourself.
Maybe you have a friend that you really trust. You share the same taste in just about every subject. Fine. Listen to them. Base your opinion on theirs. But don't start telling other people that something sucks based on an opinion that isn't even yours! People start this chain of assumption that is based on nothing... and I can hardly take it anymore.
Please. Form your own opinions. I have absolutely no problem with sharing your opinion. That's exactly what I'm doing. But don't expect your opinion to become truth, and don't base your opinion on something that someone else said. Base it on your own experience.

My Wife.
What if I've already met her?
What if she was the girl who told me my camera lens was sexy?
What if she was that girl that I spilled coffee on in Alaska?
What if she was the girl at the register in the Vans store?
What if I bumped into her in Disneyland 3 years ago?
I just think it's crazy to think that I could have already met the "love of my life", so to speak, and I have no way to know it. I could have met her yesterday, and I will never remember. Even after we meet again, I won't remember that we've already met. It's just crazy to think about. There are so many "what if" combinations that it pretty much blows my mind.
She could be reading this blog right now, and she doesn't know that someday we'll be married.
It's just crazy.
