What is your viewing ground?


Today morning I opened the computer and for the first time I took a deep look at the screen saver. The images at the foreground looked bigger than those of the background. This is not a new phenomena as my Arts and Craft teacher told me when drawing that is a key aspect of drawing.As i continued to look at the screen saver I noticed the colors on the foreground were darker than those on the middle and back ground. This again isn't a new phenomena and it was part of the skills i was taught while drawing a landscape image.

 As I dwelled into the images sizes and their colors, it occured to me that the reality is that those images in the foreground are no different than those in the background. If i was to position myself in the background the imagesof the foreground would now become smaller and less colorful. I looked at it in real life and wondered how I can apply it practically. I realized that most of the times when I am worried and anxious about things is because I look at issues at the foreground. This means that they appear bigger and of a deeper color than they really are.

So I have made a resolution to look at things from the background. So next time I am caught up in a situation, I will take a deep breath and ask which ground I am looking at situation. The reality of life and situations is that they are not as big as we picture them to be. Always remember that the images are the same color and size its the ground you chose to view them that makes all the difference. Hope its a resolution you can utilize.

Have a lovely and blessed day.
