Change Is All About Perspective

Everyone sees the same world through different perspectives. We are all different and we all have different opinions, views, and attitudes. As life moves along, our perspective of the world changes. When we are children we have nothing to fear, nothing to worry about, and nothing to stress over. Children live in a life of bliss, but as we grow older we are shown the true realities of the world we live in.

Throughout our life, we begin to realize not everything is sunshine and daisies and through this process, our perspective begins to change. Maybe we aren't as happy as we used to be, as determined, excited, thoughtful, open-minded, or adventurous, I could go on and on. When the world shows us these faults we begin to think that nothing will ever be as easy as it once was.

Through changing my perspective of life, I have truly altered my overall attitude towards just about everything. Doing this may not be easy, but it is something that I believe is incredibly beneficial. When we realize that the world, is in fact, not out to personally get us something switches inside. People have so much hate or resentment towards things they forget to enjoy the good in life.

Changing your perspective is as easy as not letting every little hiccup affect your day. Learning how to forgive and forget, look past things, stop stressing and see the greater good will allow each and every one of us to live a full life. Altering your perspective is as easy as not letting negativity come in and ruin your day, or not letting the stressors at work affect your attitude.

We all have things in our life that we don't enjoy, or that we think aren't good enough. Humans tend to believe that every issue they are faced with is a problem when in reality it is just a learning experience. Learning experiences make us who we are today. They make us brighter, stronger, and more in tune with our body and outlook on situations.

When you love who you are and you love your life, you come to understand all it took was changing the way you look at it. Perspective really is key, and when you change it your life goes alters only for the better.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
