Perception - Redirect your viewfinder...

Lately in class we have been talking a lot about perception and how we view situations differently. Our perception can be influenced by motives, change, stereotyping, personal experiences, attitudes, and backgrounds. I think the most important thing we can do for ourselves and for others to avoid situations where we might not agree on something is to consider the others viewpoint. So where are we looking in our viewfinder? Probably where we want. But if we change our perspective, we are able to see other situations more clearly and why someone feels the way they do. We may not (and probably don't) understand them completely, but the least we can do is try.
