Perspective

No matter how much you try and explain yourself to others they will never understand.

Opinion One- "That storm last night was beautiful, especially how the sky lite up when the lightning pierced through it."
Opinion Two- "It's terrifying how the gases react to the electricity and the rumble it causes of the earth. And did you hear how loud it was?! The winds almost blew my roof off!"

Opinion One- "The snow is gorgeous. There's just enough to make it worth it but not so much as to bring a halt to our daily tasks. Plus now the world seems brighter as the sunlight reflects off the small snowflake particles.
Opinion Two- "There's snow covering the streets! How will I drive to work?!"
Opinion Three- "There's like six feet of snow out there!! I'm not going to be the one to shovel it out so you better come rescue me!"

Opinion One- "Time to pull out the rain slickers and trudge through this newly formed lake. Atleast the animals and little kids are getting a kick out of it. And the ripples kinda are mesmerizing. Look! Somebody got stuck! Haha xD"
Opinion Two- "Now I have to call out sick because my smart car can't make it through this water."
Opinion Three- "It's going to soak through the ground and flood my basement! All my paperwork and electronics will be ruined!"

Opinion One- "The glass is half full yet."
Opinion Two- "There's only half a glass left!"

Everyone is entitled to their opinions. That doesn't give you the right to bicker with others over which opinion is fact. When the majority agree upon a single opinion however, it may just be true. That's for another discussion though.

All I mean to say is you see the world through your own eyes and not through anyone else's. You don't know what somebody has gone through unless you are the person because even being told in detail, your background and your mental capacity stops you from interpreting anything the same way. Reviewing events in your own life, you don't even have the same reaction the second time around regardless of how long it's been.

Think about that the next time you're so quick to judge and push the issue. Everyone is correct in their own mind. Don't fight it.
