HOW WE VIEW THINGS

“We don’t see the things the way they are. We see things the way WE are.”
-- Talmund



My mother: "How was your day?" 'Not a good day today; it was very dark; the sun never came out.' I replied. My mother responded: "The sun did come out. The sun always comes out. You just didn't see it. You must learn to see beyond the clouds."



When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change.
How do you look at things? Through rose colored glasses or glasses that obscure your vision?


"The biggest mistake is believing there is one right way to listen, to talk, to have a conversation -- or a relationship." --Deborah Tannen

"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." --Winston Churchill

"What we see depends on what we are looking for." -unknown
