Everyone has two eyes, but no one has the same view.

Everyone has two eyes, but no one has the same view.
When you look, do you always see the same thing?
Even with our eyes side-by-side, there is a parallax.
Just put your finger 6 inches in front of your nose and close one eye…and look at it, then close the other eye and look at it, and the finger moves, which is the correct version?
Metaphorically speaking, we find ourselves in equal territory as we watch and evaluate various components of our existing lives.
We are continually surveying the territory ahead and calculating what our best next steps might be. The reality is that we are perceptual beings, and even the disparity between our left and right eyes, can create enough of a difference, to warrant consideration.
If we apply the thought process to our lives in general, we will often discover that looking at the same circumstance in two different frames of mind, will yield two entirely different interpretations of that which we are looking at.
It is our core responsibility to enable ourselves to see our opportunities and our obstacles through the different perspectives that time, mood and circumstance can yield.
Only then, are we able to synthesize the disparity between the views that we have taken in and make appropriate choices for our appropriate steps to be taken.
Happy Tuesday!
