A traveller once asked a wise man sitting at the city walls what the people inside were like.
“What are the people like in the city you come from?” replied the wise man. The stranger then pondered a moment.
“They’re generous and kind, they’re patient and good folk” he said.
“Well, that’s how you’ll find them here “ the wise man said.
A few days later another traveller came to city and asked the wise man the same question.
“What are the people like in the city you come from?” replied the wise man. Again there was some hesitation.
“The people are fairly mean, “ he said. They’re a grumpy lot and pretty miserable.”
“Well, that’s how you’ll find them here “ the wise man said.
The moral of the story, what you think you experience. Look for goodness and you will find it.
