We all have different perspectives often determined by our experiences. For example, this morning It felt like spring in south Texas. This first person I spoke to agreed and couldn’t wait to get out and enjoy the day. The next person I spoke to told me that it was cold and she couldn’t wait for it to warm up. Who was right? We had different perceptions about the weather. We can save a lot squabbling by listening to the perceptions of others without trying to convince them to change and accept our perception as the reality.

I am an optimistic, can do, and never quit guy. The spirit of hope indelibly marks my DNA. My research at The Ohio State University helped people discover the best in themselves and change their personal lives, public organizations, and whole communities. I bring the same spirit and enthusiasm to my blog to help those who grieve who find themselves suddenly alone, navigate their grieving. Join my more than 24,300Twitter (@alwaysgoodstuff).
