Perception is Everything.

The best lesson in perspective I have ever received was from my 3 year old daughter. As frequent Costco shoppers, if we don't get ice cream, the highlight of the trip for my daughter is getting our receipt checked. Usually a pleasant face woman at the door draws her a smiley face and she lights up with excitement. On a particular day she handed the lady our receipt, who marked a quick line and on we went. I wondered in my mind what she would say and prepared for her disappointment. Her eyes lit up, a huge smiled penetrated her lips and she exclaimed, "Look dad a Snake!" Perception is what creates the world we choose to live in.
