“Loving people live in a loving world. Hostile people live in a hostile world. Same world. How come?”
-Dr. Wayne Dyer
There is a story about a guy who lives in a small town where everyone is mean, people are inconsiderate, and where they are just down right rude. He hates his small town. When he finally gets a chance to get out of his town, he jumps on it.
When he arrives to the new town that will be his home, he stops an old lady on the street and asks, “What are the people like here?” She responds, “What where they like where you came from?” Which he replies, “They were mean, inconsiderate and rude.” She smiles, “They are exactly the same here.”
She was a wise old women. She knew that we create our world. For her the town was a lovely community, where people were great friends and where people were kind and considerate.
She understood that it is our perspective that shapes our world. He had come to their town with the same judgments, the same preconceived notions about people and the same scars that he had in his last town. It was his inside world that shaped his outside world.
What world do you live in?

My words of wisdom: Believe in love, in possibility, in going after your dreams, in never stopping, in not existing but living - fully, unapologetically and wildly, believe that all is good, and always trust your gut.
