Definitions

I have a quote displayed on the blog, "We can only see what we see from where we stand. We cannot see what others see from where they stand. For us to see what they see, the best we can do is stand beside them". This quote talks about points of view and points of reference. What I experience is dependent upon my point of view and point of reference. If I change either, my point of view or point of reference than the experience changes, the definitions of the experience change.

We define everything is some way or another. These definitions help us cope with our day, help to make sense of everything we encounter. But we can get stuck in definitions. and thus suffer based on definitions that are unmoving. I believe that if we can adjust our point of view and point of reference then the definition will naturally change and we will become unstuck. Thus lessening our suffering.

Thank You
