When I look out the window...........

 I see a beautiful lake. But I am not necessarily talking about MY window. I could be looking out any window. What I will see is BEAUTY.

Why am I raising this? People nowadays, especially nowadays, see things they don't like. They are always looking to see what is wrong with the world. 

My parents, bless them, were the perfect example. My mom especially. She lived by the window. Look at what the neighbors are up to. OH NO, is that a black family moving in down the street?

Doesn't even have to be racist in attitude. Why is that girl dressed like THAT going to school? OMG, look at the lawn on that house - does no one there cut their lawn? 

Or, I see smog, I see dirty streets, I see crowds, I see a dog shitting in a park. 

Now, I am NOT saying we are all like this. Maybe even not the majority of people are like this. BUT for me it is an attitude thing. You look out the window to see what there is you don't like to see. Hell, I did it too. From time to time.

But you get to a point in your life, where you look out and you see blue sky, trees, nice looking homes (not looking at the ugly ones), you see kids playing, you see a gay couple holding hands. You see someone helping an elderly person across the road. 

And if you are REALLY REALLY lucky, you might see.......................Snow, lots of Snow. Lots of Snowflakes too. And then you have..............

Mind you, if you live in a big city you will see ugly snow. But you might also see a Snowman or two and kids frolicking in the snow, depends what you are focused on. 

So, tell me people, what do YOU see when you look out of YOUR window or A window?
