My Opinion On Opinions

I have a lot of opinions, everyone does, and we like to believe we choose our opinions objectively but do we really? Have you ever heard a song for the first time and you just decided the song sucks and go on to tell anyone who asks just how much it sucks, but then a friend tells you he/she loves the song then you actually listen to it and end up falling in love with it? Well it happens to me sometimes, and most times I refuse to admit I was wrong about the song or whatever the subject was and end up keeping our love affair a secret. Same thing happens with a lot of things, you might change your opinion of a subject matter just because someone else has a different opinion of it. There are songs I decided I liked but once I heard some people voicing their love for it I just automatically dislike it, and it’s not just regarding music, it’s the same for a lot of things, the opinions of others makes you either rally for or against a subject matter. We might like to claim we don’t care what others think but the truth is everyone does, just in varying degrees and on different issues so know this, your opinions are not solely yours, they have been influenced by outside parties in some way, so in the end, even a case you consider a no brainer, someone else would have a different opinion. This is all just my opinion, what's yours?
