For me, perspective is one angle of an entire view. The more knowledge or experience that is acquired should not shift a person from one side or another of that view. I believe that gaining knowledge or experience should only expand one's perception of a situation or life and help them make decisions and opinions more objectively. I find that many people take new knowledge and experience, rearrange their thoughts on a subject, and completely ignore the perspective that they had before. This narrows their perspective rather than broadening it. It's important to remember that, even if you are inclined to one perspective over another, the other does have its own weight and validity that others may value more than your own.

  1. Great that you choose the word 'angle.' What is that entire view? What does one perspective contribute to the entire vision?

    Also, is an objective viewpoint more valuable? Why? Why do you think we value objectivity so highly?
