How Do You See Things?
Author: Robert Taylor

Most of us see circumstances through our own biased perceptions. We see them based on our beliefs and experiences. No two people will see the same event in the same manner.

Proof of this lies in the fact you can take statements concerning an accident from 20 people and none of the versions will exactly match. Each person adds to or detracts from their description of the accident based on what they expected to see or what they were looking for.

Things happen. It is our perception of them that defines them as being good, bad or indifferent. When you fear snakes you see every piece of vine and tree limb lying on the ground as a snake until you observe it closer.

We plan a picnic and it rains. This ruins our day. However, to the farmer who has gone through a long spell with no rain, it is welcome and makes his day wonderful. The rain has not changed. It is just seen from a different perspective.

When we incorporate the farmer's viewpoint into ours, the rain takes on a different meaning. Our day is no longer ruined and we actually enjoy it.

We often hear you can look at a glass as either being half- empty or half-full. There is yet another way to look at this. You can see that the same amount of content would fill a smaller glass or appear to be even less than it is in a larger glass. The amount of content has remained the same, our perception of it has changed.

Ah, but there is also magic in the way we perceive things. We can always change our viewpoints to more closely match what we really and truly desire rather than rely solely on past biases and experiences.

We can choose to see everything that is and that happens in a new light. We can elect to feel that all things are beneficial to us. Electricity is one of the greatest benefits we enjoy today, however it is deadly when someone is electrocuted. We could not long live without water, but it is deadly to those who cannot swim.

Gravity, which is beneficial because it keeps us from flying off into space, is deadly if you are falling from a great height. Oxygen is required for life and is dangerous in its purest form.

The above are just a few items which are both beneficial and dangerous. In the end, it is our perception and use of these things that gives them their qualities as they apply to us individually.

How do you perceive things to be?
