Have you ever wondered why many people think differently from you? You see this as right, they see it as wrong. You are sure that this is green, they swear that it is blue. You believe that a certain person tells lies, they believe that person tells the truth. How can this happen? A thing must be either right or wrong (you think). That color must be either green or blue. That person must tell either the truth or a lie. It is not so. Better: it "must" be so, but it doesn't really matter. Why? Because you, like everybody else, have created - all around your 'self' - a world made of thoughts (of how things 'should' be), according to which you think, feel, judge, decide in a certain way...and "they" do the same. Your world is your own creation, as it is theirs. If you accept this reality, accepting others as they are becomes easier. And such acceptance can make your own life easier.
