Perspective is so interesting!  

The definition of perspective is a particular attitude toward, or way of regarding something; a point of view.  Our perspective shapes everything-how we view ourselves, the world, and situations. I was reminded of this while riding bikes in the park this past weekend.

I noticed that the sky was gorgeous shades and variants of blue. I commented to Greg how absolutely extraordinary the colors were, but I did not get a response. I began to question my perspective—then I thought, it may be the glasses that I was looking through.

 I looked out from under my glasses and the sky was beautiful, but it was my glasses that enriched the blues into vivid and extraordinary colors. It brought to mind how all is shaded either for good or for bad by our perspective, our mindset, our lives, our situations, our thoughts about the day, our experience, others, etc.  

As we step into this week, let us challenge our perspective and ask what glasses am I looking through? Is it grateful, kind, loving ones or judgmental critical or flattening ones?
