Two ways of looking at things

BLUE and YELLOW

In a pretty house on a hill were two windows. One window was of blue glass, and the other was of yellow glass. Two children entered the place, and looked at the view from the different windows.

 

"Oh!" cried he who looked through the yellow glass, "what a glorious day is this! How everything is bright with sunshine and white snow!"

 

"Why all seems damp and dreary to my eyes," said the other, who was looking through the blue glass. "I'm sure there is sleet falling and frost on every leaf. I see no sunshine at all."

 

A cheerful temper is like the yellow glass that makes everything look bright.

A peevish temper is like looking through the blue glass, which turns a beautiful day into a miserable day.

 

 

I love these words of wisdom, don't know the author.

I hope some of you that read will enjoy them also.
