What do you see between the trees?

What do you see between the trees?

Three answers spring immediately to mind. Your answer may be expressed in different words but the concepts will be along the lines of the following.

It’ll be either “nothing: there isn’t anything between the trees;” or perhaps you’ll be “mesmerised by the sky and its intense blueness;” or you might even see “part of the limitless heavens that surround this planet we call home”.

The answers remind me of the three construction workers who were asked what they were doing. The first one said, “I’m earning £150 a day”, whilst the second one said, “I’m working on a major bridge project”. But listen to the third one, “I’m improving the lives of thousands of people after the old bridge was washed away in the floods”.

The answers all depend on your perspective; the way you think; what drives you; your life’s philosophy. Articulating a meaningful personal philosophy helps to secure a feeling of wellbeing; it helps to preserve and secure our mental health; it gives us a sense of purpose and helps us through difficult times such as we are experiencing at the moment.

So what is your personal philosophy; what have you defined as your purpose during the brief time you are here on planet earth?
