Understanding Separate Realities in Therapy

Realizing the Principles allow each of us to create our own experience of life moment-to-moment has a further implication.  Each of us, looking at the same situation, creates our own entirely separate, unique experience of it.  Our own reality looks absolutely real, so it's easy for us to forget that others are not thinking what we do, but their reality looks just as real to them.  This leads to schisms and misunderstandings unless we look deeper to realize we still have common ground; we are all the creators of our own lives, and we can find understanding and compassion and look for agreement from a deep, non-judgmental feeling.
