It’s important to remember that
even reality is malleable. It’s true
that reality is fact reliant, but even facts are subject to perspective. It’s a fact that I’m a 60 year old Polio
survivor, about half crippled, pain plagued and poverty-stricken. It’s equally true that my novel is available
on the Internet, my wife and I have successfully raised two children, and I’m
retired and living debt free on a little piece of paradise in the Ozarks. Both scenarios are entirely factual, both are
my reality. One is gratifying, the other, not so much. When I face each new
day, my attitude depends largely on which reality I choose to reflect. It’s my
choice. Given that choice, I generally
choose the one that makes me happy. SC
