Considering Perspectives

Our perspectives (attitude towards something or our point of view) are built upon many things including our senses, our environment, our education to name but a few, however this is true for every single person and yet we often don't consider how others view the same things.

The age old and outdated example of 'is the glass, half empty or half full' has often been used to determine if someone is an optimist or pessimist but its never that simple.

Take for example the image above, it could be interpreted many ways by people with the same sensory faculties and what if anyone was vision impaired, hearing impaired or both, how might they view it?

Even greater now, with the advances of technology, to what degree can we trust what we see and hear, especially online. How susceptible are we to manipulation?

This is just scratching at the surface but to move forward positively, we all need to question things and also consider the perspective of others to better understand what we are dealing with and how we should deal with it.
