PERSPECTIVE!

This morning I was standing in my yard

and I noticed something.

We have a little tree growing and as I looked at it

from where I was standing it looked like this.



However, when I look at it out of my dining room window

it looks like this.

So I began thinking about the things I see each day

in this little town of Port Orford.

Sometimes I see something like this...

...and sometimes I see things like this...

...or this...

(The van is full of rusty junk and has an

old refrigerator sitting on top.)

...or even this .(Our shed after a storm last winter!)

I cannot see this side of the shed unless I choose to.

So I began thinking this morning that I can choose to

focus on whatever I want.

The UGLY or the BEAUTIFUL!

It's all a matter of

P-E-R-S-P-E-C-T-I-V-E!

(One problem is that I have to drive or walk to see

the beautiful, the ugly is right outside my door!

Oh well, life is full of challenges!)
