is everything! Literally.
Chris and I watched Pride and Prejudice this weekend. It was so obvious to the viewer that the main characters could not get past their perceptions to move forward in their relationship. Both of them were convinced of the validity of their perception of events and neither was correct.
Life is so much like that. Humans are so stubborn and self-righteous that they never question their perception. If they did, they'd probably find a much clearer and brighter reality than that which they create in their narrow perception window.
Right and wrong. Black and white.
But the world is never black and white, is it?
Why is it that we are so afraid to challenge our perceptions? To get the whole story before we form an opinion or take an action.
Perception smacked me right in the face this weekend. And the perception these others had was so far off base that it was almost laughable.
Well, I'm moving on. Their loss was my gain...
Once again, I'm all the wiser for it.
