I often hear the phrase, “I am entitled to my own opinion.” Is that true? If so, what does it mean? This piece has some similarities to my previous article, but I believe this topic is worth exploring separately.
Sayings, songs and sundry speeches have long and overarching reaches.
I’ll explain this bit of verse after setting the stage.
