The Importance of Keeping an Open Mind and Judging for Yourself

[Arnie H]

I think its important to keep an open mind about things, ideas, and experiences. Regardless of the opinions of others. No matter how much we think we know, there's always something to learn and no matter what we've tried there's always something else we haven't.

As we mature and gain wisdom our views and opinions often change.

Reminds me of the lyrics from the 1968 song by The Intruders - Cowboys To Girls:

I remember
(I remember)
When I used to play shoot 'em up
(Shoot 'em up, bang, bang, baby)
I remember
When I chased the girls and beat 'em up

But I was young and didn't understand
But now, I'm a grown up man
I know girls are made for kissing
Never knew what I was missing
Now, my life is not the same
My whole world has been rearranged

I had a hunting accident once. It really opened up my mind.
