This week had me revisiting the definitions of Perspective and Perception.<\/p>\n
Perspective: a point of view; a sense of proportion. Perception: a way of regarding, understanding or interpreting…<\/p>\n
In this sudden change\/disruption of what seemed solid…what seemed unshakeable in my own life, I have been working to view it all from multiple directions.<\/p>\n
For the most part, we naturally see things from our own perspective, but I have been curious about every angle, for as long as I can remember. Sidenote: Curiosity wasn’t necessarily encouraged but has remained a constant companion for me, since childhood.<\/p>\n
Despite the deep pain and sadness which, at times, has been so<\/em> heavy, I have been taking time to view the good, the bad, the ugly, the shocking through lenses opposite mine.<\/p>\n Since the divorce process started, I’ve been doing this regarding all aspects – the years prior to marriage, the engagement months, the life and death of the marriage.<\/p>\n I’ve heard it said that perception is<\/em> reality.<\/p>\n Are we open to genuinely view our perception\/reality from all<\/em> angles? If not, are we limiting ourselves in some way?<\/p>\n Many words have been thrown at me, but I carefully hold it all up to the Light and see if Truth is present.<\/p>\n If no Truth is present, I find healthy ways to release (so that my body isn’t holding on to the negatives). If Truth is present, I take the time to process so that I can begin applying it to my life.<\/p>\n Some moments\/days it may be too difficult to see a different view and that is alright.<\/p>\n Breathe. Take your time.<\/p>\n Be gentle with yourself <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n and<\/em> <\/span><\/p>\n Challenge your Perception to gain true Perspective.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n A healthy perspective keeps us grounded\/centered\/secure.<\/p>\n Positive energy, Prayers and Power to you as you move forward to face all angles of Perception (yours, mine, theirs, ours!), discard the lies, process the Truth and gain Perspective.<\/p>\n Common Day Hero:<\/span><\/strong><\/em> You have consistently been a Champion for humans, but especially women. Your boldness, brilliant mind and brave heart are the cause of freedom for many. I AM committed to warring alongside (and for) you.\u00a0 JuR, I dedicate this post to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This week had me revisiting the definitions of Perspective and Perception.
