Seeing the good, creating the life you want

I don't judge a person until I meet them, and I certainly don't judge them based on what others have said or done, or by hearsay which is often someone's personal opinion, not fact.
If I did, I could say all men are pigs, all Irish are drunks, all whites are racist, all blacks are lazy, etc. 
But I do not. 
I judge each person by what they do or say to ME as that is the only truth I know. 
Your personal experience with a person may be very different than another's, because your past, your experiences and mindset are different than theirs.  People often change or grow and the one talking about them may either not aware of this or will not allow for it. Because of this you may find what you have been hearing or been told is not true.  This is why it is important to keep an open mind when you hear what people say about others.  
I know for a fact all people can change and grow.  I have seen and experienced it.
I also know people see things as they wish, it is a choice they make based on their past experiences,  by what they choose to listen to, and by the people they surround themselves with every single day. However those are not my experiences, my people or my choices and therefore not my truth.
I choose to see the good,  I choose what I speak and who I choose to associate with.
And as I choose to see the good, I attract more good into my life, and more of what I want.
Choose Love, and that will become your truth, your experience, and your life. 
You have nothing to lose...except negativity, and that is a very good thing to lose...
