My Eyes Have Been Opened...
Have you ever stumbled upon a piece of information that made everything fall into place? Maybe even listened to someone else’s perspective on a situation and it just made everything click? Tonight I was reading a book and all of a sudden I was slapped in the face by reality. As much as the slap hurt, I have to accept it. It’s amazing how a few simple words can make you realize what’s been right in front of you for the past few months.
I am the type of person that can think for hours. I’ll turn information upside down, right-side up, sideways, and any other way you can think of before I draw a conclusion. This is one of my flaws. Sometimes, it’s not complicated; sometimes, it’s right in front of my face in simple, unambiguous terms. The problem occurs when I miss the simple problem and/or solution because I was too busy making it complicated.
All I can do is to use what I know now to my advantage. It’s actually quite liberating to view a situation with a different perspective. Let’s see if my new-found 20/20 vision will lead me in the right direction…
