Quote of the Day: Abraham Lincoln
“We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”
-Abraham Lincoln
Also known as: looking at the glass as half full rather than half empty. The world is exactly as you perceive it– if you think the universe is working against you on a particular day, everything that happens will support this theory. If you think the universe is working in your favor, everything that happens will support this theory instead.
Our perceptions affect our thoughts, our behavior, and our actions. Thorn bushes have roses, so rejoice.
