Worldview is a personal statement.
A speaker stood before a group of alcoholics determined to demonstrate to them, once and for all, that alcoholic was an evil beyond compare.
On the platform, he had what appeared to be two identical containers of clear fluid. He announced that one contained pure water. And the was filled with undiluted alcohol.
He placed a small earthworm in the pure water container while everyone watched as it swam around and headed for the side of the glass, whereupon, it simply crawled to the top of the glass.
He then took the same worm and place it in the container with alcohol. The worm disintegrated right before their eyes. There, said the speaker, "what's moral?" (what's the lesson?).
A voice from the rear of the room said quite clearly, " I see that if you drink alcohol, you will never have worm.
This means you will hear, see, and perceive exactly what you want based on many of your own values, prejudices and personal history.
Because Perspective is truly personal.
