The flower and the sword.

There's this chinese saying about the flower and the sword.
The whole story is actually about perceptions..
take for example:

We passed by each other and he stole a glance at me. Usually this is not a big deal but depending on my mood today, his glance felt different somehow. It's either
1) Does that mean he likes me? --> elated
2) Why is he staring at me? --> so rude! spoil my mood!

It may well be nothing but a mere eye contact in that instance but it can also be an incident that you wll not forget so soon.

Whether somehting is positive or negative depends on your perception. It is watever you think it is..

The world is a mirror.. one that reflects the shadow of your soul.. glance into infinity..
