Rob Brezsny shares this story:

One morning, as a man gazed out his kitchen window, he spotted a brush fire burning in the hills. He called firefighters, but before they arrived, he realized that the fire was actually the rising sun lighting up the horizon.

“Double-check your initial impressions to make sure they are true,” Brezsny writes. “Most importantly, be aware that you may initially respond with worry to events that are actually wonderful or interesting.”

I didn’t wake up this morning to be personally attacked.
