Perspective

Perspective is one of the most important aspects of our lives.  How we see things

determines more of our happiness our unhappiness, positive or negative feelings, than

we might ever imagine.  One person's undefeatable obstacle is another person's

stumbling block; what I see as an insult another person may see as a funny joke.

The ways in which we react to things are usually a reflection of how we've seen them.

We are all mistaken sometimes; sometimes we do wrong things, things that have bad consequences. But it does not mean we are evil, or that we cannot be trusted ever afterward. 
― Alison Croggon

If you once forfeit the confidence of your fellow citizens, you can never regain their respect and esteem. It is true that you may fool all of the people some of the time; you can even fool some of the people all of the time; but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. -Speech at Clinton, Illinois, September 8, 1854. 
― Abraham Lincoln
