    Why don't I see goodness and beauty everywhere? Because you can't see outside yourself what you don't see inside yourself." (ANTHONY DE MELLO)
    .................................................. .................................................. ................
    In the book "Who Can Make the Dawn", Anthony de Mello tells us the following story.
    A disciple went to his teacher and said
    Why is everyone here so happy except me?
    Because they have learned to see beauty and goodness everywhere, answered the Master
    And why don't I see goodness and beauty everywhere?
    Because you can't see outside yourself what you don't see inside yourself.
    With this story, Anthony de Mello tells us that the way you see the world is similar to how you see yourself.
    For example, two women go on vacation together to Africa.
    One focuses on the dirt, on the lack of luxuries, on how one day they treated him badly, on the discomforts he encountered.
    The other stays with the colors, the joy of the people, the beauty of nature, and the hospitality.
    It is the same trip, but the two women have had a different experience. While one focused on the negative, the other focused on the positive. Who do you think has a more positive concept of themselves? The one who has focused on the good will also be much happier and will enjoy life more, don't you think?
    Have you noticed that when you feel good about yourself, everything is more beautiful and the people around you are much better? It's not that the world and people are better, it's that you see them better. You see them from a different perspective.
    If you find yourself focusing on the negative and not seeing the good around you, see if you can find something more positive within yourself. If you look for it and want to find it, you will find it; From that moment on, you will see that everything around you changes, and becomes more positive, and you are happier.
