Same Life, Different Lens
Every single day, often without noticing, we are given hundreds of small opportunities to decide how we look at the world around us. We choose how we interpret what happens to us.
We can move through life complaining about what’s missing, or we can meet reality with acceptance and even joy.
We can see our problems with “drama”, or simply as situations waiting to be resolved.
We can obsess over our shortcomings, or consciously turn our attention to our strengths.
We can take the good things we have for granted — our health, our relationships, our time — or we can slow down enough to truly notice them, appreciate them, and feel grateful for them.
When we fail, we can label it a disaster and carry the weight of shame, or we can treat it as information — a lesson that makes us wiser and more capable the next time.
We can experience our work as a burden we endure, or as a privilege that allows us to contribute, grow, and provide.
None of these choices change the facts. But every one of them changes our experience of the facts.
At every moment in life, we have a choice. And through those choices we create our own reality.
