Marsha, As you yourself say, there is nothing to do the clinging. You are conditionally here, and every minute comes and goes for you. Therefore your inability to cling to any opinion is moot. You have no self, remember. At least this is what you state. Perhaps there is a glimmer of change there...
As a conditional input, my opinion affects your continual changing since there is nothing there to stop it, right? By not clinging you are like the wind, so drop the presence that you have any control; you are contradicting your very premise. This should not matter to you, and your stance only presents confusion. Lighten the load and live free. Practice what you preach and you will get someplace. Stay strong!
