Response to Incident

 

"The appearance of things changes according

to the emotions; and thus we see magic and

beauty in them, while the magic and beauty

are really in ourselves."  Khalil Gibran

As you gaze at your surroundings, perceptions color what you see.  You may look out the window and if the sun is shining brightly you may feel empowered.  Looking, once again, out the same window on the same day,  you may feel sad or lonely.  It's not the view, it's you.

Disruption is inevitable, and on certain days, you may respond with laughter taking the situation in stride, while on other days, you may feel kicked to the ground.  It is not necessarily the incident, but how you choose to respond.

In the exact same scenario without any variables, how you see things or react can vary and be inconsistent with previous responses.  The only constant in life is change, providing you with numerous opportunities to see either beauty or pain. You get to choose.
