I have two good friends. Each have a problem with the other. I am in the middle. I strongly think they are both correct from their perspective. I realise that between them, the level that they have understood the situation differs greatly. They both see the problem with a different pair of eyes, thus they draw a different story. A different story created a different conclusion. This led to a conflict.

I thought for awhile. Then, I put them together. All I needed to do was to draw one story on the same board, merging their thoughts. Now they are talking to each other. The problem ceased to exist. What does this tell you?

Do we see only what we want to see? Are we in conflict with someone because of the limitations of our perspective? Can we just zoom out and see the bigger picture? If that fails, can we see it with our heart instead?
