Start Living From Now On

Life is not black and white. Life is a beautiful kaleidoscope of colors, textures, nuances, and distinctions, a canvas of subtleties, tones, differences and diversities.
But just as the old saying “Beauty lies in the eyes of the Beholder” the reality of the world also lies in the eyes of the beholder.
Your perception is your only reality. Reality cannot exist until someone gives meaning. However a person may perceive a situation to be becomes the truth for them. Someone else will likely perceive it differently.Their reality will be their own.
It has long been suspected that eyewitness testimony is unreliable. You can ask three different people about the same event that all three experienced and you will often get three vastly different accounts. Even if they are similar the nuances and details are often inconsistent. Everybody sees and experiences Life in their own ways, with their own biases, expectations and personal stereotypes.
We all have a choice of how we can perceive Life. There is a polarity to everything and we can choose to focus on the good, the best and the magic of life with all of its possibilities or we can choose to focus on the worst, the negatives, the drudgeries, the perceived limitations.
You have a choice.
Some may make the choice to look at the negatives, to refuse to see possibilities, to limit their thinking to just what can be proven or seen. They choose to be skeptical about life. It’s a choice they make.
Why do they choose to see only the black and the white? There is such a delight to be had in the colors, the different shades, the distinctions. Our minds can become so expanded and our imaginations can run so wild. Why would we choose not to see the differences in perspectives? There are always many sides to the stories. There is always more than one way to look at any situation.
But we make the choice._____________________________________________
