Are Opinions A Reflection Of Someone's Personality?
Laurie Reeves

There are many characteristics of an individual’s personality that inspire them to create their own outlook of life and opinion is one of them.

Opinions usually go toward a person’s rational behavior or in some cases a debate of an issue. Sometimes a person’s experience can dictate an opinion in what they believe in rather than their personality. Opinions could theoretically indicate a drastic or selfish act of mind-boggling behavior based on their personality. Opinions can often spark a common interest or disinterest around other people thus personality is the indicator of opinions. Different personalities lead to different opinions. Sometimes people could judge other’s personality by evaluating an individual’s decision they make in any situation. After all, decision-making is a part of our cognitive thoughts and personality, which can lead to a resolution to a problem. Decisions can also determine different kinds of opinions. Decisions could create many paths for people to accept in order to establish a possible outlook or outcome. Opinions and decisions could lead to order in society, which can then change the way people mentally perceive it through a new filter of light by influencing them to abide the laws of their country or else they face a severe consequence. For example, in a court case trail, the judgement of a dispute between two or more parties is determine by the hearing of court members through a majority opinion. This idea can alter the reality for individuals with a higher level of reasoning.

Personalities usually shapes the all the characteristics of an individual. Therefore, experience limits our opinions and opinions limit the manner in which we respond with our actions. Older people who give advice to others, can lead individuals down a wrong path knowing that no one’s life is better than anyone. Once an individual guide their own life, they can describe their own experience of it by forming their opinions about it. Opinions of society can alter many people’s personality to say what they want or think of life. When an opinion is spoken, an idea is constructed and it will determine whether or not there should be an argument about it. Our opinions are also shaped by our desires, which many people want to carry out. Opinions can express our feelings and sometimes the nature of our creativity. Society should give people permission to be themselves rather than being others in which our personality enables us to form our opinion of life. After all, the reflection of people’s perception can transition into an individual’s personality, but could change the way they approach it.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
