One thing I like about where I live is that I'm always relatively close to rugged peaks, to mountain wilderness.
We all see life through unique windows, or paradigms...and so much of our trouble comes from thinking that our windows are the same as someone else's. We often associate with those whose windows are similar, but even then, they're all unique, framed by our family and upbringing, our life's experiences, our personality, and so much more. Instead of projecting our windows on others and assuming they see things in the same way as us, why not listen and try to see through their windows? It's amazing how much this can help in all of our relationships with others...each of whom sees from behind a unique set of windows.
Have you ever driven across the western United States?...there is so much empty space in this world. This photo was taken on Zzyzx Road in the California desert.
