-- Seneca
Objectively, we have emotions, feelings.
Subjectively, masks often emerge to hide them.
Objectively, when learning new things, we make mistakes.
Subjectively, we wish the floor to open up and swallow us.
Objectively, we have been soaked to the skin,
Subjectively, we respond with a flood of tears.
Objectively, we have been robbed.
Subjectively, we feel violated and ravaged.
Objectively, we tried but didn’t win.
Subjectively, second place, our mouth tastes of ashes.
Objectively, we are retrenched for economic reasons.
Subjectively, we have been fired and judged as wanting.
Objectively, we are left out of the team.
Subjectively, we are disappointed, we sigh, feel blue.
Objectively, someone tooted us on the road.
Subjectively, we flip the bird and disparage their parentage.
Objectively, life happens.
Subjectively, we weave meaning to it.

Hmmm. And most of us spend much more time in subjective mode. Food for thought here - thank you.
