"Life does not consist mainly, or even largely, of facts and happenings. It consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that are forever blowing through one's mind."
-Mark Twain
Isn't it amazing how we can each see the same thing in an entirely different way? It's because of our perceptions. Our past experiences help us to formulate some kind of definition to our current experiences. Yet we can change the way we look at things. We can choose a different perspective, see things from someone else's point of view, or from a higher vantage point. And when we broaden our scope and look at the "big picture" then we can see more clearly what is real.
