WHAT WE EXPERIENCE

"You never know till you try to reach them how accessible people are; but you must approach each individual by the right door."
~ Henry Ward Beecher ~

It's rare to experience people as they really are. We tend to see them as we are, through the veil of our history, our prejudice, our longings, and our mood of the moment. It's worth keeping this truth in mind as we slap our concrete judgments on others as if a new day or insight might not change the way we feel. 

I give people more than one opportunity to show me who they are.
