Americans have a certain mentality and way of thinking. Israelis have a different mentality and way of thinking. English people have yet a third type of mentality and way of thinking.
Every individuals thoughts, attitudes and beliefs are colored by their innate nature, their education, society and surroundings.
We often confuse our personal thoughts and feelings with absolute objective reality when it is nothing of the sort.
Not even close.
It is just a reflection of the many different components that comprise us.
When we are experiencing emotional pain it is ONLY because we view things in a certain light. A change of perspective would completely change our feelings. EVERY situation can be reframed.
When people believe something they must remember how much they are influenced by people and other factors that have nothing to do with absolute truth.
There is but one absolute truth.
G-d.
Get close to Him and those attuned to His perspective, will and desires and you are approaching absolute reality.
Big topic. I leave it here......:-).
