Attitude. Your attitude affects those around you but not as much as how it affects yourself. Our attitude can change our day to day happiness and our #life and perspective, along with greater understanding, can change our attitude. Let's say you have just split up with your partner. You go for a walk to get some fresh air but can't help but think about your situation. Maybe you're feeling sorry for yourself, maybe you are angry, hurt, upset. As you walk through a park you glance over a hedge and can see a mans face smiling as he stares at the woman in front of him. You can only see their heads as his hand raises a bunch of flowers towards her. She grasps them with both hands and absorbs the fresh sweet aroma in a gentle inward breath through her nose, eyes closed to capture every part of the scent. For this couple it is a happy moment, one that may be remembered for years. You cannot feel happy for them. You cannot feel anything except the hurt and pain, the anger has been made worse because even here in the park you cannot get away from it. Could perspective change your attitude? If you knew them as friends could you feel some happiness for them? Why should you, they have everything and you have nothing! And yet in two more steps your perspective will change and your attitude will make you feel differently. What you see will affect your attitude in a way that you could not control your brain and feelings by yourself. And yet maybe when it does you will be able to remember this moment for the rest of your #life and always realise your attitude affects you and your happiness. What do you see after just two more steps? As the hedge clears you have a full view of the couple. She is on her knees in front of him, still holding on to those flowers. You look down from his smiling face towards his seat, a special chair indeed, a wheelchair.
