Absolutely true. First, our minds filter all information based on our past experiences. Second, have you ever noticed that a positive person and a negative person can be in the exact same place and come away remembering different experiences? If you're looking for or expecting good, you'll see it. The same goes for bad.

This is called the third eye or the minds eye. It is your creative side seeing the art before you create it.

Some people believe in this, choosing to reject facts and evidence for whatever notion they hold.
In the movie, "The Point", the Rockman tells Oblio "You see what you want to see and you hear what you want to hear."

Definitely true.
People believe what they want to believe. But reality does exist. It's the thing that persists even when you don't want to believe it.
I say believe what you want, but keep your eyes open.
