We don’t see things as THEY are, we see them as WE are

I think it’s hilarious that even when something is in writing so it can be easily read and understood, and just a few lines,  many, many people read stuff into it that clearly is not there.  It’s true, we don’t see things as THEY are, we see them as WE are.  And boy, are we unfocused, out of touch and take stuff personally.  Glad I’ve stopped taking things personally and thinking it’s all about me.   As Valerie Allen says, “It is not reality, but our perception of reality that leads to our actions.”
