Perception is always subjective

Words swirling around various blogs made me think of this quote I like by Anais Nin:

"We don't see things as they are; we see them as we are."

I have more to say about this, and about the various subjects on other blogs, but in writing my thoughts I decided to search for something to link to about Anais Nin (tangents, always!). I found several websites including this one: Anais Nin Web Site

More quotes:
"There is not one big cosmic meaning for all, there is only the meaning we each give to our life, an individual meaning, an individual plot, like an individual novel, a book for each person."

"Life shrinks or expands according to one's courage."
