Our lives are built on perspective. Our lives revolve around how WE see things. Naturally we see things differently than others, but in the end we as human beings want to believe in the world as we see it hence the birth of Opinion. It's actually an argued idea that if you were to look through someone else's eyes, still having the knowledge you already have, your vision would literally be different. For intstance, if i were to get into your head and look through your eyes with my own the color you see as green (though you've been taught to say its green) could very well be brown or red to me. We've all been taught to say its green, but in reality there is absolutely no way of knowing if what i see is the same as what you see. So what does that say about reality? We all see it differently, see it the way we want to see it. So in other words we basically create our own realities, and I think we have opinion because someone else is trying to force their reality on our own, and no body likes to be pushed around! As a part of our manufactored realities, we have succumbed to certain truths because we've been taught that some things are just the way things are. But flashing back to the "looking through someone elses" eyes theory, simple truths are still simple truths but we decide on how we see them. This is one of the beauties of mankind, the gift of discernment, opinion....and insight.
