I was watching this TED talk today (I've really been getting into them) in which an artist used something not so traditional as a canvas. (I'll let you watch it on your own if you wish).
Alexa Meade's canvas
And it made me think about how I typically view situations. Any situation a person is in can be perceived in a number of ways, just as art can be perceived in a number of ways, just as one can react in a number of ways. The struggle is when we can only see one course of action. We have blinders on and can't get out of the box. We can't, I can't, view a situation in any other light. What then? It's up to me to come out of it. We can choose how to see any situation we are in.
These thoughts actually have nothing to do with Alexa's message in her TED talk. But they certainly inspired them after watching it. Thanks, Alexa. =)
