Our reflections, what we take in & process from our external world, are wildly distorted.

After all, in the Victorian era, plucking a woman’s upper hairline, in order to give one a large forehead, was considered beautiful.
Our impressions are distorted by our culture, our sense of place, our geography, our time in history, our age, our ethnicity, our race, our gender, our socio-economic status, our religion & spirituality, our physical abilities, our intellectual abilities etc.
What’s curious & impelling, is that 9 times out of 10, don’t know we have our very own, made to fit, finely customized distortion filter. Being neutral is impossible.
What’s an in-your-face obvious pattern to a Mountain Life Lens™ is an obstructed, impossible to see mess for a Carrot Life Lens™. And what’s a bring-it-on-ease making, beautifully organized system to a Carrot Life Lens™ is a migraine inducing, constrictive jumble to a Mountain Life Lens™.
