What you see, is not necessarily what you get!

As you can see I have posted two pictures in this blog entry, both taken less than 30 seconds apart and the first picture very much included in the second picture. If you look at the first one of the grass you would think that possibly I just took a picture by mistake as the camera was pointed down, however there is a purpose to this picture of grass. As I was in church this am I thought about how we (people in general) portray themselves to everyone else. If I sent you the above picture you would likely assume something like "Wow that is pretty amazing that there is no snow in Saskatchewan in mid March." However if I send you the below picture also you might think, "You were trying to trick me by sending only the first picture". 

We tend to be like this....maybe not intentionally tricking someone but only letting people see a small portion of who we really are, because if they saw all of us and what is really inside we might not have many friends. 

Take this as a reminder that what we see in people on the outside is very likely not everything they are on the inside. It is kind of sad that we can be more open with people we have never met than with people we have known a lifetime.
