Perspective

Oh Just got home from a fifteen hour day. Those are always fun. However, I felt obligated to write. To whom? Good question? Who am I asking these questions to? Another good question? Anyway, something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately is how different people view things. It seems crazy how you can have two normal people experience (view, see, taste, touch etc) the exact same thing, yet come away with two totally different reactions. You go through life with your own views, values, expectations, experiences, and desires. Everything you do is colored by this. The stimuli you experience are viewed through your paradigm, and you react to things based off of that. Obviously, people are not static and change throughout their lives. But I think people tend to get used to viewing things their way and assume that their view is "normal". It's easy to assume that everyone is seeing things the same (This is probably the reason why people tend to associate with others that have similar backgrounds, goals, and experiences). But if you take a step back it can be surprising. The fact that people can view the same situations in such opposite ways is really crazy. It can be exciting. But, it can also be very frustrating, and annoying. However, one thing is certain. It is never dull.
