My friends Judy and Mary,
Thank you for your thoughts.
Everyone thinks from a different position, we see things from different perspectives but some things remain constant.
Our eyes are amazingly versatile and we sometimes forget just how much we can see at once.
As a hypnotherapist I am trained to observe my client with perifferal vision. It would not, for example, be gentlemanly or polite to stare at a lady client's chest during hypnosis, however, I need to monitor changes in breathing patterns so I use my perifferal vision.
Gertrude Jekyl the famous Edwardian garden designer suffered from short-sightedness but this very fact made her, not only studyt plants closely, but, the blurred effect that she saw when viewing an arrangement of colours in a planting scheme enhanced her feeling for blending colours gently.
Try cutting out a frame from a piece of cardboard, make the hole about notepad size (A4 or foolscap or similar) then walk into your garden or neighbourhood, hold it in front of you and see a part of what you normally see but framed. See how many beautiful arrangements and separate pictures go to make up your normal picture.
Now is here to enjoy. Lets see how many other ways there are to do this.
Our goals and focus are no different, they have many parts that make the whole. Miss some parts and the thing becomes incomplete.
Have a great day.
Roger
