This was a huge unforgettable slogan coined in 1972 when
Memorex launched a campaign for their cassette tapes. I remember hearing it constantly and applied
to everything. What it was really
implying was “are you hearing what you think you are hearing?
I love things that challenge my perspective. Give me a current theory and I love to search
my mind and soul, dig deep into the depths of my experiences and come out with
a whole new way to interpret something. I don’t really think we have opinion or controversy
issues. We have limited perspective with
the inability to see the world from a new angle. To experience life in a way
that stretches our comfort zone.
Our perspective is being challenged everyday and we are
constantly being approached to see things in a broader sense to create the
inner ability to love all things.
I thought about this on a smaller scale as I ventured
outside in 3 degree weather thinking that a high of 42 tomorrow is going to be
awesome. But wait, just the other day, I
recall specific complaints of the 40 degree weather when it followed a 60
degree day. Perceptively speaking…. I
can apply this theory to anything.
How do we enhance our view of the world we live in to create
a community environment? Be thankful for
all things. Celebrate the cold as well
as the warm, the eccentric and the mundane, the rural and the city, the drug
addict and the CEO. No one is greater than the other; it just may
be your perspective.
