Our perspective is our point of view.....simply put....and we all know that....and yet perhaps it is the most important thing in all the world.....it is the place from which our own actions are born.....and the place in which we perceive the way people behave around us.....it is everything......and so I think it is important to feed that perspective often, and in many ways to evolve, or open it up to be able to receive what goes on with us....and sometimes our perspective changes in an instant......something happening that changes it all for us....and sometimes we gain perspective by walking a mile in somebody's shoes......I know that currently perspective is what is driving folks to take in the news of the world.... and it all is taken in through the lens of how we all live our lives......what we hold dear.....our core values, and beliefs....and so much more.....and it is easy to get swept up in the turmoil and strife, and I believe deeply that that is not the way.....I will not discuss any of it with anybody, or post about it, or any of it......it is a personal choice I am making.....I believe for me it is better this way.....we all live in our own perspective, mostly...... and it is not worthwhile to share my thoughts with people whose thoughts are also rooted deeply in them.....but I suppose my point in all of this is just marveling at how important perspective is, and it begs the question of whether there is ever any truth?? Like real truth? I think the other way perspective finds me is the perspective my ex and I have.....so vastly different....his assertion of what has gone on for four years, and mine.....and maybe the truth lies in the middle....or somewhere else fully....but it is why it is important to communicate it when we are able, with our loved ones.....in the hopes that understanding can be found.....with the intention of that happening....and I try really hard to convey my perspective when I am able, and seek to hear another's, even though it is challenging sometimes when things seem so clear to us.....and black and white, to be willing to listen.....but that is what I am trying to do more....mostly in the places I have made up my mind in.....perspective is also what rules whether we have a happy life or not....no matter the circumstance.....I know people that have lovely circumstance in their lives, and choose to focus on the negative always, missing the beauty.....and it is just how they are wired....their perspective, and I know other people that have such a tough road, and are happy....because they choose to be....happiness is a choice no question, despite our circumstance....and it can be our perspective if we let it, I believe that:) So for today I am going to try and shift my perspective to tackle the ice in my driveway, lol:) YIKES! Stay safe y'all and have a great day:)
What is your perspective???......
