Perspective

I think perspective is such an interesting thing. It so intriguing to see something in your own way and somebody else sees it in a completely different way. You may think the other person is wrong but it really is the way their brain works differently that makes things so different depending on the person. This is another reason I love art, especially abstract. It’s so cool to peer into a piece of art work and be a able to see something so different than the person right next to you. Your perspective can also change how you can see many different things out of one piece of art work, or one sentence in a story.

                I think it all comes down to what matters to you. For instance if there is a girl that is really interested in soccer she may look at some clouds in the sky and see a soccer net, and her best friend who loves to eat may see a waffle.

 I think our whole life depends on perspective otherwise we would all thinking the same things, speak the same things, and do the same things. Life would just be so dang boring! Perspective is what makes us unique, what makes a joke incredibly funny to one person and immature to the next person. Neither person is wrong in their reaction to the joke; both just have their own way of encoding the joke and interpreting how they feel about it.

                My advice to anyone is don’t hold back on what your perspective because perspective can really be such a creative thing. With your unique perspective you can show the world something that has never been seen before, something that has never been thought of, something that has never been invented. Don’t hold back, I know you have it in you! (307)
