A person's worldview, emotions, decisions, and general well-being are all influenced by their life perspective, which is how they view and understand their experiences. While a negative or constricting perspective can impede human development and fulfillment, a positive or empowered perspective can increase resilience, happiness, and achievement.

This is a more thorough explanation:

Perspective: What Is It?

In essence, perspective is the prism through which we view the world, shaped by our emotions, thoughts, and experiences.

It is our interpretation of events, circumstances, and even ourselves, and it has a big influence on how we respond and behave.

Two people confronting the same problem, for instance, may view it very differently; one may feel defeated, while the other may see it as an opportunity for personal growth. 

Family members of missing Huntsville realtor Ronald Dumas Jr. respond after new details emerge in the investigation during a recent court hearing. Kierra Clark had been in jail in Shelby County, TN, since early April. She is charged with kidnapping in connection with Dumas's disappearance.

17-year-old London Thomas has been missing since April 5.

She was last seen when her sister dropped London off to meet her 23-year-old boyfriend at a house on Carlysle Street in Inkster.

The FBI and crime scene investigators suited up and worked the Inkster home of the 23-year-old boyfriend of 17-year-old Thomas on Thursday night. The family of missing 17-year-old London Thomas confirmed to 7 News Detroit on Saturday that the teen's body has been found.

Court documents reveal new details in a horrific case out of southwest Baltimore, where two children were found dead inside an apartment and their mother, police say, confessed to the murders.

The charging documents for Jameirra Hall, 28, detail that a neighbor may have unknowingly heard the moments leading up to the deaths of Da'Neria Thomas, 6, and her brother Davin Thomas, 8.

The neighbor told investigators that they heard screaming from who they believe was Da’Neria, saying "Mommy, no," on the evening of August 19 into August 20, 2021.

The children were found dead inside their apartment at the Coventry Homes on August 24, after a maintenance worker was asked to investigate a foul odor coming from the unit.

What started as a routine traffic stop quickly turned into one of the most chilling discoveries in Baltimore County history. Police pulled over 33-year-old Nicole Johnson for speeding and fake tags, but what they found in the trunk of her car left the entire community in shock.

Inside were two decomposing bodies: her niece and nephew, just 11 and 7 years old. This video breaks down the disturbing timeline, the chilling confession, and the unanswered questions surrounding this tragic case.

Jacksonville, florida — A February traffic stop in Jacksonville has reignited debate over the use of force and transparency in policing after viral footage showed officers breaking a car window and striking 22-year-old William McNeil Jr. during an arrest. While the cellphone video drew national attention and backlash for its graphic nature, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO) later released full bodycam footage to provide context. Sheriff T.K. Waters emphasized the importance of reviewing incidents in their entirety, noting that the officers involved have been cleared of criminal wrongdoing by the State Attorney’s Office, though one officer has been relieved of his authority pending an internal review. The full video shows Officer D.J. Bowers citing McNeil for driving without headlights in what he called inclement weather and for not wearing a seatbelt—claims that have come under scrutiny due to the apparent daylight and dry conditions seen in the footage.

The encounter escalated when McNeil refused to exit his vehicle and repeatedly asked for a supervisor, prompting officers to remove him forcibly. While bodycam footage does show officers issuing commands and warnings, it also confirms some discrepancies—such as the absence of rain and both officers’ squad car headlights being off. The presence of a knife under the driver’s seat, discovered only after McNeil’s arrest, has added further complexity to the case. Civil rights attorneys Ben Crump and Harry Daniels, now representing McNeil, argue that the officers’ actions were excessive and demand accountability. As the internal investigation continues, community leaders and legal advocates are calling for systemic reforms, citing not only this incident but a broader history of force-related complaints within the JSO.
