Perspectives

What do you see in the picture on the right? More often than not, our first impression of what we think is apparent to us may not be the real thing! Our prejudices coupled with our 'busy' syndrome color our perspectives. Our views are often distorted. However, when we begin to pay a little more attention to the things that appear obvious to us, we suspend immediate judgment and embark upon a journey of discovery. We learn, we grow, we appreciate the beauty around us. The process helps us gain deeper insights into life itself. Think about Richard Foster's statement,"Superficiality is the curse of the age."
