DEPENDS HOW YOU LOOK AT IT (life ponder)

By
Industry Observer with people first-then business feedback-input specialist

Right -wrong, good -bad, happy -sad will offend your pride & ego when challenged to what I am about to introduce & they should. Why? It is subjective to your own experience & not subject to outside sources. For now, let's rise above. We want to remain objective to everything (not e-z) while we journey in this brief time here on earth. Objectivity separates us from our think, feel & react brain systems while allowing us to see & receive naturally what is ours. No drama, mini-series, under or over sell, just seeing what is really going on. From there, it's like taking a canoe or river rafting trip. The water, wind & current do the work while we coast-drift along

THE SPIDER

Makes the point of perspective & capturing what is presented in our own little worlds of coming & going. Thinking or trying too hard is not allowed or present. Mr. spider can walk on floors, walls & ceilings as well as parachute through the air using web strands & air currents. What a wild & privileged ride! Imagine the spider's point of view on most anything? He sees all sides & viewpoints. By being objective as it travels, it receives all that is sent in the moment & note that spiders have as many as eight (8) eyes to take it all in adding peripheral vision abilities too

BACK TO BEING HUMAN

Humans, by nature & almost default, lack, misuse or don't use all their ability to observe without adding or taking away from the experience. Small children when shown something, just gaze & wonder with ponder, without being told to do so

ADULTS

Enter our adulthood where we must analyze, calculate, test & hesitate as we journey to & fro. There are good reasons for this, but the con or negative aspect poisons the well & is not worth it. We don't want to live a thoughtful (thought-out) life as much as an abundant, spontaneous simple one like our little child did/does

POINT of VIEW

People share their learning, opinions, education, experience, along with their bias, preferences & the mother of all dynamics: FEAR. Nothing wrong sharing unless you are trying to recreate someone in YOUR own image. Instead, let them have their own experience naturally without coercion, threats, willfulness & dominance. Our parents had their way with us, at some point, it becomes our turn for our way

PEOPLE PROJECTION

People, knowingly or not, like to project their beliefs on others adding emotions to drive the one-sided point. If that doesn't work, they resort to guilt trips, judgement & can't wait for your failure so they can bask & gloat in: I TOLD YOU SO! How cruel

EVEN IF RIGHT

Life is designed for your optimum interactive experience requiring YOU show up personally meaning YOU & not your programming, baggage or hypnotized self. The greatest love-driven, non-negotiable assist you can give is the following:

HELP THEM (& you) SEE FOR THEMSELVES

The majority of mankind does not know how to do this let alone teach & instruct. Also, it takes more time & may lead to other connected & relevant dynamics all good too. Patience, loving kindness, not being willful & trust is needed for results

TEACHERS TEACH FROM INSTRUCTION MANUALS

In our school systems, teachers are vetted, hired, trained & then indoctrinated to teach called simply: A teacher's curriculum. It is a comprehensive plan, given to them, that must be strictly followed on what to teach, how to teach & to assess. Like parents who had/have the final say on their kid's childhood, teachers have it too. I always wondered why school was so boring & rigid. It is taught that way!

WORTHY NOTE: Some teachers manage to ice the cake & make it fun while keeping to their oath of teaching. Amazing how you remember more that over the other way. Some private schools specialize & customize your child's learning

SUBJECTIVE is COUSIN TO OBJECTIVE

I'm hot, you're not. I'm cold, you're warm, remain subjective personal experiences exclusive to the person. Very important if you want to find your identity, be real, & receive your portion due in this earthly life naturally. There are those that argue this. I remain puzzled when they do. Your personal truths are non-negotiable

SHARING: How you look at anything with another can be rewarding & invokes intimacy too. It also is healthy as when you come to know more of person, there is no judgment only understanding them, & who they are. Look at it that way & enjoy them, yourself & the coveted, once in a lifetime journey given to all

Richie, what a powerful reminder about perspective. We often rush through life analyzing and reacting, instead of stepping back to observe without judgment — the way children and even spiders do naturally. When we allow others (and ourselves) the space to see and learn through experience rather than pressure or fear, life becomes so much richer and more authentic. Thank you for the nudge to return to curiosity and presence in this journey we’re all navigating.
