A Perspective

A Perspective

How can we ever know anything for real because everything we know is things we learn from different people’s perspectives. Also, perspectives aren’t facts and facts are not ideas.

To take on someone else’s perspective and to treat it as the ultimate truth is absurd. What one needs to do is venture out into the world and find their own truth. Although, that will not make it a fact but will just remain to be ones perspective.

One can never see and experience everything. It’s an almost impossible task. But one must try to experience different things. Many people are too comfortable in their daily routines and don’t like to do things which make them uncomfortable. But doing these ‘out of routine’ things are the ones that really teach you new ways of living.

It’s not all black and white but just a lot of grey. When you are set in your ways you see everything as ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ But good or bad are just perspectives of how one views a certain scenario. When you debate the idea of good and bad, when you question it, that is when you move into the grey areas – areas of uncertainty and discomfort. This is where real discovery can take place. New ideas, thoughts, perspectives and changes flood through your body and soul. It fills you up with new life.

Change is constant....(unknown). It always is and people who accept it grow, people who resist it stagnate and miss the evolutionary cycle.
