Perspective

One of the most significant things I have learnt in my life is that everything is an illusion and how we view the world is all a matter of perspective. I have discussed this before but it seems to be popping up again at this moment in time.

There has been much said already about how 2 people can go through the exact same experience and view it in completely different ways. Other things like you can be so angry or upset with someone for hurting you and then 1 little fact can reveal itself and suddenly all that anger or hurt dissapears. The event did not change, just your perspective did.

I can choose my perspective as well - i can choose to look at someone calling me a bitch as a hurtful comment and allow it to eat into my self esteem or I can choose to look at as an attack and attack back or even better I can realise that if someone does not like me or what I have to say then it is really not my issue - it is their issue. They need to deal with it, I dont.

So again, we can choose to view the world how we want to view it .. its as simple as that.
