Dealing with different worlds<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe see the world, not as it is, but as we are\u201d<\/p>\n

This quote, attributed to Ana\u00efs Nin, and later used by Stephen Covey, is true for all individual perspectives. We really cannot predict how persons, other than ourselves, see and experience the world.
