Meaning of “the one who has schooled himself to see…”
Attention to a rainy morning becomes a concrete example of trained appreciation: the same conditions can include beauty and freshness as well as inconvenience.
Where does it come from?
Character Building, “Two Sides of Life,” Project Gutenberg #60484. This is an illustrative scene about perspective, not a claim that difficult conditions should always be reframed positively.
