Believing is truly Seeing



They say: "Seeing is believing." Actually, believing helps us to see more clearly. What we see is not always what it appears to us, depending on our viewpoint. In the pictures, one vertical line appears to be longer than the other, but both are the same size. If someone is late for a flight that crashes and kills all passengers, we would call that a blessing for that person. In the moment of seeing the plane take off without us, we might not have that conclusion and be upset enough to make us afraid, sad, angry, or even physically ill. Believing that we had to be on that plane to be happy, prosperous or successful would not be believing in the "truth", a truth we could not have known. But there is a higher power that knows the truth of all things at all times. Believing in that can provide a new view, a perception that we can be open to see in truth that there are other possibilities than what we currently know, see, want or expect. What we believe does effect what we see and how we experience it. What do you believe? Let's talk some more..... , Dee
