Do You Feel Your Opinions Matter?

Do you feel that your opinion matters as an individual? I believe that every voice, no matter how small should be heard. The poor and the rich all have the right to have their opinions heard and matter. It's just that the rich have it much easier than those who are thought of as "below" other people. We're all here on myLot so I'm guessing that you care for others opinions and want your opinion to be heard by others. That's why I'm here, and I'd love to hear your opinions on this topic.

Yes, most of the time, I feel that my opinion matters a lot. More importantly, I try to elaborate and articulate more on my opinion to grow some significance in it. Sometimes, when I feel that my opinion might hurt someone or if I know that the other person will not take it into consideration, I will keep it to myself.

It's great to hear that you have restraint when it comes to opinions. I know too many people that lack that, so they end up offending people unintentionally. I think that's one of the biggest problems today.

My opinion matters greatly to me. However, it may not be well received by another because many are of different characters. However, it would be ideal if I applied an opinion that it be heard. I am also all for someone informing me that perhaps my opinion is incorrect. I am not a perfect person and easily accept my flaws, so I am completely open to hearing others opinions as well.

It's great to hear that you're open to hearing others opinions. There's so many people in the world that seem to only care about their opinions and then disregard others completely. It's always great to keeping an open mind.

I think every opinion matters. It's like a penny... penny is still money, especially when it has a goal and it can have a big impact depending on who receives it.

Every one is important. Every opinion should be considered. Because everyone have their own special different way to think, have their own path to explore their thoughts. So it is not correct to omit someone. We have to give priority to one and all.

Always, my opinion always comes first cause I'm the one who knows me best. Other people's opinion might sometimes bother a little but I never listen to before making a decision.

We have various opinions and in fact we might disagree with each other, but still i believe that each opinion is worth listening to. I don't like people who keep their opinion for themselves and merely follow what others have to say. I call them people without backbone. I am a very strong-willed person who always like to voice out my opinion everywhere. It started when i was in High School and then continued till i was already working in an English Academy. People always try to listen to what i have to say but i am not saying that i am always right though, so i always ask them what they think about it.

Yes opinions does matter even if it came from the richest person in the world or with just a regular cab driver. We all have different viewpoints and it helps us to learn more about something to make a better decision.

Yes, everyone's opinion matters. Whether they voice it seriously or in a joke. So do my opinions. However we cannot push anyone to take our opinions, we can only voice it and let them to accept it. People always look up to much money, so yes, theirs would be heard before the others. But the ones who always accepted them do not have opinions of themselves. Money speaks for them not their brains.
