Perspective

It's such a powerful word with so many meanings.

I figured out what the point of that movie, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, was. It explains how elderly people realize that there's more to life than what they've grown accustomed to. They gain a new perspective on things as they adjust to a culture so very different from the one they thought they knew.

Some grow with change, some become uptight and try their best to fight new things. Perspective can change you and help you to see the brighter side of things.

In our own ways, we all live in a bubble of what we supposedly know. Within this bubble, however, we are blindsided by the wonderful things we are surrounded by. Knowledge is power and with that knowledge of other places and how they do things, we can move forward in all things in life.

A little perspective goes a long way in any situation and it just so happens that it has helped with innovation and progress.

All that being said, having a little perspective just might help you get out of your next jam.
