“How I See It”

“Sometimes you’re the windshield and sometimes you’re the bug.”

“Sometimes you’re the bat and sometimes you’re the ball.”

“Sometimes you’re the hydrant and sometimes you’re the dog.”

Perspective. Life is all about perspective.

Sometimes it’s called “seeing the big picture”, “seeing the forest through the trees”, or even “don’t sweat the small stuff”.

How I see an incident will be different than how you view the same incident.

Why?

Because we have lead different lives and have had different experiences. It’s these experiences which form the lens through which we view life.

You can learn a lot about an individual by watching how that individual tolerates a different perspective than his own.

Ask yourself – “How do I respond when I am in a situation where my perspective is far different than those around me?

Am I tolerant, indifferent, or engaging and open-minded? Is that good or bad?

The actions we take and the words we speak are part of what makes us who we are and what makes each of us different.

How boring this world would be if we were all the same.

Think about that for a while. Heck, it might even change your perspective a bit!

I love words & enjoy the freedom of writing. I strive to find the exact word to convey not only my thoughts, but also my feelings. I desire to fill the paper with words much the same way an artist fills the canvas with paint. To me, writing is an art form. View all posts by Dan
