Often, people build stories in their mind which have no basis in the contours of reality. Those which build these images, are building such images which are based on their relatively limited sense of understanding about the particular subject or person. This is a "fill in the blank" reality, which often manifests itself into the hearts and the minds of those who have a "fill in the blank" mindset, not the person with the here said reality. The universe is designed in a way that reflects itself, just like a mirror, showing you exactly who you are to yourself, not who others are. Your largest and most concealed insecurities have their way of presenting themselves to you in a fashion that is relative to your self designed way of communication. This short writing is a reminder that your preconceived notions on a particular subject or person, are a construct of your inner mind and emotional-relational well being and not of others. This is one of the largest fundamental truths in which you must have large insight to carefully watch who and what you massacre with your personal thoughts. Having a keen sense of control on this subject will lead you to enlightenment in many platforms of life. Will Barnes
About This Quote

When we say that we don’t let our dreams and goals get in the way of our happiness, we’re really saying we won’t let any obstacles get in the way of us getting what we want. We say this to make ourselves feel better about the fact that sometimes, the things we want simply aren’t meant to be. But there’s actually an even more important reason for not letting your goals get in the way of your happiness: you need to be happy in order to achieve them.
