The Way We See Things Depends on The Way We Look At It.

We behave and we react depending on how we feel. What we feel depends on how we interpret a certain situation. Therefore, our interpretation affects greatly on how we behave, react, decide, and live our life. Given a certain situation, there are as many interpretations as the number of interpreters. Each of us has a unique perception on a scenario that we face. This unique interpretations sometimes result to misunderstanding between many individuals. The way we see things depends on the way we look at it. Because of this, lots of people suffer because they look at the dark/negative side. They live in the horror of their own perceptions. Because of this, lots of people also persevere and keep the hope in them. That's why they succeed. Therefore, whatever situation we face, we have the power to fantasize the negative effects and suffer its negative consequences or to focus on the bright side and persevere the tests of life. Happy mylotting everyone!

it's the same as the Law of Attraction which states "Like attracts Like". you get what you want to get, you become what you want to become and you see things the way you want to see and understand it. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion so no one can question how you interpret things around you. In the world where differences and binary opposites exist, no opinion is wrong. have a good day!

That is right, Law of Attraction where dominant will find its way to manifest and if you'll look things the positive way, then good things will always happen :) Thanks for this very nice discussion.

Hi jearl, i agree with you on this. It is all about perspective. Have you read a story about a frog who was deaf? there was a cliff and the difference between both cliffs are quite long and it seemed impossible for the frog to go on and leap over to the other side. But he was deaf, and he thought his companions were telling him to jump and that he can do it because they trust that he would. But then in reality they were telling him he might fall off the cliff and not reach the other side. So to the deaf frog, he though he was cheered on and so he had confidence and everyone saw that he can do it and he knew he can do it too. Imagine that he hears them telling him all the negative things and so he would never even try to jump. I think it is similar to our lives in many different activities or circumstances or events happening to us. It just so depends on us and how we see things in front of us. the frogs on the other side saw differently, and the frog that jumped saw different perspective that he can reach to the other side, and so he succeeded. We see that those other frogs that saw differently would not even try and see if they can do it, they already accepted defeat.

thank you for sharing this discussion. I am agree with you. there was a time I came to practice about power of mind and thaughts. that time, I was living better and happier than now. from the time I have started to think all time about those who hurt me and think for how to complain to God, many bad things had happend to my life as it is like darkness of night. so I think it is really works, yes, the way that we think effects on our life too much and that is the matter. I recently think that I should make some changes and recycle my thaughts.

Thank you for dropping by here extremefun4fun. I also believe that you need to make some changes about your thoughts. You had experience something good happening before when you were thinking of good things so better do it again.

Youre right, it's all in the mind, take things lightly and always bare in mind that no matter how dense the situation you're in take positive rather than negative, you'll be able to have positive/ good reasons to overcome it. But when you drown yourself with negativity, outcome is you look stressed and worn out that you won't have ebough strenght and energy to solve things out. Be positive and you will live.

that was a nice discussion there jearl02 i liked it. and i liked the way you desccribed it and you are absolutely right. things really depend on the way we see things. If we are a postivie thinker then we will work hard on our problematic situations and without losing hope. but if one is a pesimist then he would lose all hope and starts giving up. it is said that everything happens for a reason. and things turn out fine in the end. each experience teaches us a lot of things in life.

Thank you technojakeb... I agree with "things turn out fine in the end." This means that if things are not yet fine, then it's not yet the end. Such is a good inspiration to continue hoping that "all will be well."
