Subtitle: Your Vision Can Make All the Difference

~ lovingly presented by Bill Bauman ~

The eyes, lenses or perspective through which we’re viewing life can make all the difference in what we see. We know, for example, that many people viewing the same event see entirely different things—because of the unique filters through which each one see the event.

What kinds of lenses are available to us? While there may be countless visions of life, I’d like to describe four important sets of eyes through which we see and explore our world:

•  The lens of collective humanity: When seen through the eyes of our collective humanity, life looks quite real, very important, often serious, and very purposeful. While a beautiful picture and experience, we’re primed to see it through the eyes of a presumed problem or judgment.

•  The lens of energy: These eyes show us a world of flow—as if on a giant dance floor where life is all about experiencing numerous dance steps … or as if life is music, with us having the privilege of learning to sing many songs.

•  The lens of the right brain: This vision opens us to the poetic world of meaningful symbolism, where symbols express the powerful meaning of each of life’s creative moments. It can e fun playing in these symbols.

•  The lens of the soul: Through the eyes of the soul we see the perfection, splendor and beauty of everything and everyone. Inner peace and celebration of every aspect of life characterize this experience.

What’s powerful about these four lenses is that, together, they form a unified, blended view and experience of the world that is complementary, mutually enhancing, and absolutely perfect. Not only are all four lenses available to us individually, but their blended vision is equally embedded in our human nature. We’ve got it all.

Invitation: So please feel invited to give yourself permission, every day, to apply each of these visions to your life … then let them merge together, and see what the look, feel and experience of life is for you.

May you find, own and live the lenses and vision that are natural to you! More importantly, may you find the fun, fulfillment and joy that such expansive living brings!

Blessings to you!
