Take nothing on its looks: take everything on evidence. There´s no better rule. 

                                              .......... Charles Dickens

Lately i have been having a lot of conversations with people about looking at the truths, holding on to the truths and allowing the truths to be the things they see and are reacting to. 

So many times we can get caught up in a place of romanticizing the things that are happening and glossing over the truths. 

Or 

Reacting to something that we think we hear rather than what we really hear 

OR 

Expecting someone to do or be something that they are not capable of being or doing ....

All of these things can lead you to feeling anxious, disappointed, depressed ...... 

When we hold on to the truths and the real capabilities and actions of the people around us we can have emotional reactions and responses in line with the real situation. 

So remember look for the evidence to support the truth rather than just  looking at the looks.....
