HALF FULL OR HALF EMPTY?

It's amazing how much difference perspective can make. People who visit for the first time look out over my back yard and exclaim, "How peaceful! Aren't you just out here all the time?" While I can enjoy the peace and beauty of my back yard, with its flowers in bloom, winding stream, waterfall, and tree-studded hills, when I look out, my first thought is, "I need to clean the pond filter," or "I need to do some weeding." It's all a matter of perspective.

By shifting my perspective, setting aside all the "need to do"'s, I am able to feel the serenity of the moment. It changes everything. What's in your life that could do with a change in perspective?
