Sunday Reflection: What we see
Sometimes I am amazed by how people come away with such different impressions of the world. Some of it, certainly, is background: our views are shaped by context and culture.
But there are times that I will share the exact same experience with someone, who is of the same background as me, and we end up with dramatically different perspectives on what just happened.
Reflecting on that, our difference of opinion often comes from what we saw. Even being in the same place at the same time as someone, it is very possible to be facing different ways. I am reminded of this when I travel with my parents, who see beauty everywhere; they revel in the wildflowers in a vacant lot. Other people pass by the same way and catch no glimpse of it.
I suppose the same is true of so many things: people in the same place see such different things. In my work, I see this when a crime is committed and someone is caught and prosecuted. Some people see that as a chance for retribution, to hurt the accused. Others want to heal that offender. Others just don't want to look at it at all.
There is great beauty in this world, and terrible scars. Often, the former is the work of God, and the latter is the work of man. We seem better at despoiling than beautifying. Those wildflowers are of God; the glass-strewn vacant lot is of man. And yet we are given that gift.
