What perspective are you feeling today, or how was it yesterday,….grateful, blessed, tired, bored, meaningless?
It’s Amazing how different a day can make things seem! One good night’s sleep, a relaxing wake up routine vs a horrible night’s sleep, rushing and tripping out of bed to the never-ending shrieking of the alarm! It’s shocking how different your perspective can be depending on choices, given circumstances,….your chosen thoughts and views.
I’ve held on to the notions that life’s experiences have been amazing teachers. What I didn’t account for are the actual amount of hills and valleys my mind, body, and soul can take without completely needing to reexamine my perspectives overall, before actually collapsing from overuse.
Yes, I still believe life experiences teach us invaluable lessons, but thankfully, age is also showing me that I can learn the same lessons from others, without stumbling to stand up again and again,….and again after needing to experience it myself.
“Remember, young man, experience is not the best teacher. Other people’s experience is the best teacher. By reading about the lives of great people, you can unlock the secrets to what made them great.” Jones, The Noticer, by Andy Andrews. (Examples of biographies first given in this novel, Winston Churchill, Will Rogers, George Washington Carver).
