Brief Thought - 2

Hey guess what... I'm back!
Wow, another entry so soon after the last?!
I must be enjoying my summer eh? (Yeah right!)

Anyways... back to the main point of all this.
In this entry of brief thought I would like to bring up the "realization" or "reminder" of the importance of perception in our lives.

I had sometimes told my friends, sometimes they see things that they encounter in their lives as something very bad. And my reply to them sometimes is perception. How we perceive or see those events usually determines whether that event is a good thing or a bad thing. In a recent reading of a psychology related site (http://moodgym.anu.edu.au/) [Great for those who are or knows someone that are moody.] the site had brought up something that supported this thought. It too agrees with what I had been telling my friends. What's more though, even Shakespeare had said it too! He gave Hamlet the following lines: "There is neither good nor ill but thinking makes it so".

Well I think this is a good thing for all of us to keep in mind. But I'm thinking... if someone is to dive too deep into such thinking... they'd start going crazy! Haha! So my advice is... take it lightly... maybe just at face value... and apply it to things that happen to you to help you push on. Don't use it to judge everything or everyone... or you'd go coco soon!
