Opinions, are thy useful or harmful?

My take today is they are harmful and I honestly am not interested in them. Am I open to others view points and perspectives? Sure but if I don’t ask, please don’t tell. If you are not an expert on the subject matter please do not force your opinions down my throat. That is toxic and unhealthy. You have a right to how you see things and I have a right to how I see things and it is totally okay to not agree. What is not okay is for you to judge, shame or force. I am going to be very clear…. shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up with your projections, with your trauma, with your perspective on how anything should or shouldn’t go if you are going to not honor boundaries.

I have a new take with my friends lately, you have a right to your opinion, you have a right to not agree, to be mad even. What you do not have a right to do is sway my opinion so much so that you cause chaos in my life. What you do not have a right to do is force. What you do not have a right to do is not honor my boundaries. So please, with love for all, shut the fuck up. I am a bright, intelligent human who is fully capable of figuring life out whether it takes me longer than others want or if I don’t make the decision others want me to make. You have a right to love. You have a right to be there, walk the road with me if you like. You also have a right to remove yourself. I will gladly hold the door open for anyone to get the fuck out of my life if you are draining or not honoring or just simply disrespecting me in any way. And you absolutely have a right to not tolerate my bull shit as well. Do I love and value my friends? Yes very much so. Enough to let you get the fuck out if that is what you deem fit.

So again, please hear me, shut the absolute fuck up or get the fuck out. With love…..
