October 17th - Unrequested opinions are criticism?

The story...

I willed to identify when, or if, I offered unrequested opinions.  So, I began an experiment.  The number of opinions that I've maintained seems to have diminished over the years.  Yes, I believe I've fewer ideas regarding what others should be or do.  The experiment was testing the degree that I might be overstating the change.  I drew an "O" on my left thumb to remind me of the random experiment checkpoints.  Was I airing unwanted opinions? 

I tested, forgot, told another person, tried again, forgot, told another person, and tried again.  The concentrated effort to measure, my level of opinionating, didn't last.  Yet, I've witnessed fewer personal opinions from me.  A less-opinionated life seems to be part of my conception of the good life - better community engagement and enjoyment too.

The only church in town will offer space for people to grow together as they walk side-by-side towards the "Celestial City" - living and walking humbly with God in the Light of His Word.  Our sanctification process is good, real, and seems to be best worked out with and through others.

Just for today...
