What colors your perspective?!
Sometimes what you really need is a new perspective. In life we all wear lenses - they color our thoughts, opinions, and overall the way we see the world. For example if you reside on the side of optimism you might be wearing rose colored glasses - no matter what life throws your way you, you're always looking for the lesson or silver lining. You have a so called "rosie" outlook on life. On the other hand a predominantly pessimistic person might have on a pair of blue lenses. When life throws something their way the initial response is to protect and no set expectations too high. The point here is just notice what lenses you're wearing, sometimes in the span of a day you'll go through a few different ones. People are meant to have an individual experience within the collective. When connecting with others remember that they're coming from their own perspective. Neither is right, but in order to be the most effective with connection and communication you must become masterful at identifying and trying on a whole array of colored lenses. π
