Rose-colored glasses

Each morning when we awaken we put on a set of glasses that we use to interpret the world as we see it. These metaphorical glasses serve as a filter through which we personalize the events of the day. If you are a person who wears prescription lenses you are aware of how your environment looks with and without your glasses. Does the presence or absence of the glasses result in a different reality? If you were never fitted with corrective lenses would that mean that the world you were seeing was erroneously presented or simply a different version of it? We tend to choose the version that provides more clarity. If our view of the world is about the choices we make, why not choose the positive, clearer view? Of course, even that view is an interpretation. What is the reality we are seeing? It is a fleeting glance at our belief system, for our thoughts and beliefs create what we see as our reality. What do you see when you look through your glasses?
