About This Quote

Everyone has a different opinion about the issues of the day. This goes for your parents, siblings, friends and even the people in the news. It seems that everyone has an opinion about just about everything. While others may disagree with you on some things, you can be sure that they are also behind you on others.

When people disagree with you it is their right to do so if they want. Never apologize for having your own ideas and never let anyone tell you what to do with your life.
