Perception

There is no truth.  There is only perception.  

~Gustave Flaubert

Perception
Life is all about perception.  It can be really great or really bad, it all depends on how your view the world.  This is not about being either an optimist or pessimist.  It's the lens in which you see things through and your attitude that goes along with it.  Most of the time though, our perception gets clouded by our past experiences and has made us very skeptical.  Our perception about life can be skewed because of this.  If you can clear away your clouded  lens and let yourself truly see what everyone else does, it would probably change you for the better.  Remember, perception is how you view life and that can change at any moment, with every day and with every new opportunity that comes your way.  Start seeing life for what it is and not what it should be.
