We all have our views of the world, our histories and experiences that shape the way we see what we see into something it may or may not be. The bubbles in which we live that refract the light and warp our view, turn it into what we want to see, not what is necessarily there. We look at others from our bubbles and they at us through theirs and we think we know each other but, how can we ever know if we know?

We make judgements on what we see from our bubbles and we adjust our behaviors based upon them. We act in ways that we think are suitable and justify our actions as fro our perspective, it is what is right, necessary. It is easy to defend ourselves from our position as we can always say, *"you don't know what it is like to be me."* but, is it true as again, how can we know? 

Perhaps someone knows precisely what is going on and is in exactly the same position yet, behaves differently, has chosen a different path. What makes one act one way and another act in the opposite, why can one person with power use it to heal or build while someone with the same potential uses it to harm and destroy? Are there just good and bad people in the world, are some born altruistic while others are greedy or, is it environmental, nurture over nature?

We all change over time of course, our thoughts on what is right or wrong, the things we said we would never do become common or, what we have been raised to believe is stripped away as false or harmful and we pick up better habits, or higher level sensitivities. Our view of the world changes constantly as our bubble bounces from experience to experience and the surface warps the views all over again. 

If we got a clear view of our world, I wonder if we could see things as they were, people as they were, life as it is. I think our behaviors would change, I have a sense that if we all had clarity and perspective, the vast majority of us would actually come into a much tighter path forward as we realize that our goals are much more aligned than we had envisaged.

I wonder what the pin will be, I am sure it will arrive eventually.
