Perception

For a long time I believed that the world was going cold. Through the process of self reflection and the careful observation of people over the semester, I realized it was actually me who was becoming cold. I guess cold is a harsh word maybe just less aware. I have been blindly walking about, unaware of the kindness going on around me. I am beginning to realize that focus is vital to how we see the world. Depending on whether your point of view is pessimistic or optimistic can greatly alter your perception. By thinking about performing kind acts I have become more aware of the kind acts being done by others and there effects. Its funny, even the people who perform these acts don't realize how profound of an effect they have on the recipient. Through my project I hope to better myself, becoming more aware of the kindness in the world. By documenting this journey I hope that others can benefit from my experience.
