Will you believe it when you see it or see it when you believe it?

There are two types of people. The first type are those who require scientific proof and have the attitude "I'll believe it when I see it". My parents are in that category and therefore found most of my wild ideas just that, wild ideas. Thankfully my husband is the 2nd type of person who like me believes "I'll see it when I believe it". We represent the dreamers of the world, those who believe that our beliefs create our reality and not the other way around. More and more people are beginning to think this way thanks to things like "The Secret" and "The Law of Attraction". Of course I believe that my way is the right way, but I have learned to love my parents in spite of our different philosophies of life and to not judge them. I've found that when I don't judge them, they tend to not judge me and everybody is happier.

I do think though that when looking for a long term relationship, being like minded on this question is an important parameter as it really defines how you look at life. Having been married twice before I can say that it really helps to look at life from like-minded eyes for a relationship to be all it can be.....
