PERSPECTIVE

"It basically means your way of looking at things.

For example , the way you look at a thing might be

different from another person. It's "your side of

the story" or "from your Point of View". Now

there's a lesson to learn from this as well. Quite

often during discussions we have arguments.

These arguments arise mainly due to the failure of

seeing things from the others perspective or point

of view. Perspective helps in reducing arguments

and increasing co-operation , understanding and

coordination.

There's a famous idiom which says " Put yourself

in their shoes". This means to look at things from

another person's perspective to understand why

the person perceives a situation in a different way

, it opens up new doors and new ways to look at

things.

The same is with life. Life is a blend of both

bitterness and sweetness. It all depends on your

perspective and the way you look at life. If your

perspective towards life is positive , life will be

simpler.
