Seeing "every man clearly"
Does how we perceive others really make a difference? It does when we're seeing them spiritually!
Years ago when starting out as a young salesman, I approached my manager one day to ask his opinion of the purchasing agent I was about to visit. I asked him if the agent was an "OK person," and his reply was "Certainly—everyone's OK."
I was intrigued by his answer and often thought about it, as I had always felt instinctively that man had a noble dimension that couldn't be seen. I saw traits such as honesty, intuition, charitableness, love, and unselfishness as hints in this direction. But I was still at a loss to understand how these hints related to the picture of everyday life, where it often seems everyone's certainly not OK.
