Perspective: the state of one’s ideas, the facts known to one, etc., in having a meaningful interrelationship:
I was wading in the ocean with my sister in law and we were just chit chatting about her upcoming move and life in general. In the conversation I said something to her that may have had more of an impact on me than it did her. It was so profound to me that I repeated it in my head over and over again until I could get to my phone and type it in, thus securing its place in my life. Before I tell you what I said, allow me to remind you that I went from something that was not bringing any joy to my life (actually, it was like a joy-sucking vampire) to something that I thoroughly enjoyed with a lot of people I enjoy spending 8+ hours a day with. By changing just ONE aspect, many things followed suit.
“When your perspective on life changes, your entire life changes.”
By changing just one thing in my life, my entire life changed. It was like a fog lifted and I felt “me” again. So, I started thinking about that. If I can change one physical “thing” in my life, imagine if I changed my thoughts; the way I thought about those “things.”
It really does come down to (and I can’t take credit for this quote) “Life is what you make of it.” I also can’t take credit for this quote, “Thoughts become things. Make them good!”
