To start off, we need to define perspectives. I will not go to Webster again, I find his website very cluttered and uninviting. Instead I will come up with my own definition. Basically, perspectives seem to be your view of the world. Your angle. What you think. How you think. How you handle your situations. But then again, based on your perspective, the definition of perspective might change. To a small child, perspective might mean "Oh not again, shut up dad." To an old person, perspective might mean "How much per one spektiv? 70 cents you say? Dang, I can't afford that." To a high school student, perspective might mean "Easiest class ever!"
We can expand a little on that. Your perspective is how you view your world and situations. Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? For me, it is a case of the glass being 100% full, part with water, the other part with air (both crucial to survival). Actually I never thought about that before now, but it seems to make my point reasonably well. This brings up something else: writing. According to Bacon, (paraphrased) "Writing makes a man exact." I think he means that writing makes you realize what you think. Your thoughts are very hard to convey if you can't put them into words (telepathy hasn't been invented yet (even if it was invented, it might only use words)). If you want to discover a little bit more about yourself, pick any topic and start writing about it. Your true nature will soon be revealed...... With just two small payments of 19.95. S&H not included.
Anyway, back to the topic.
Your perspective has a bigger impact on your life than you realize. Oh wait, I am at 400 words. I must go now.
To be continued.
