Your prompt for JusJoJan January 11th, 2026 is “opinion.” Use it any way you’d like. Have fun!

When I was visiting my grandparents on Sundays after church, I didn’t realize how blessed our families were.

Looking back at the many dinner tables full of relatives with many different opinions, I don’t remember anyone being disrespectful to anyone else. Nobody called names, or belittled. Discussion and eventually people chose to agree to disagree. Everyone got along.

It is the hardest fact I’m trying to accept, that somehow folks can’t do that anymore. My biggest worry is for after. When the change happens everyone wants, regardless of which side of the fence holds you in, how can we ever get to respectful interaction? Too many violent opinions. Not enough love and peaceful feelings hold up our world.

And that’s MY opinion.
