#perceptions

An actress must be a woman whose emotional perceptions are true, and to make them so, she must have a fine contempt for any art or thought that betrays them for something false. ↗

One of the misperceptions that exists in the Muslim world, which needs to be fixed, is the perception that Muslims in America are - are - are living in - in very, very, very bad circumstances.

Just because these flowers sprung from weeds doesn't make them less breathtaking as those in shops and well tended gardens. Some of the most beautiful "blooms" and events out of our lives spring from experiences that almost brea(o)k us. Perhaps these "flowers" are blessings which tell us how a lot of things aren't what they seem and that when we choose to change our perceptions our perspectives can transform too. Then maybe - joy doesn't have to be as elusive as we make it out to be just like weeds growing wild a few yards off an ocean shore. ↗

So I think it's - what was important to me is that I found that I can't change the fact that people already have made an opinion about me. But I don't think that should stop me from trying to correct some of the misperceptions that are out there. ↗
