Re-Interpret
If i were to say that “a man made tea for the guests”, you might wonder as to whats wrong with me. That i am stating such a simple and unexciting thing.
But now if i were to add any of the following, would you be thinking the same:
the man is blind or
the man just lost his loved one or
the guest had earlier publicly insulted the man or
the man has just learnt he has a terminal disease or
the man practices meditation by serving
It turns out, that any of the above detail could potentially change the way you look at the first statement.
Why is that the case?
Well! Because, the simple act or any of human’s performance doesn’t stand in isolation. In fact, it has factors located in past or future, inside of the person and outside of the person, and so on.
However, as we go along the day and put everyone’s performance under the narrow scanner of our measures of what is right or what was to be done, we miss out or render weak the muscle of looking the action in a context.
Everso often if we could look around and just create simulated reasons of the observed actions. And such simulated reasons could be sometimes serious or sometimes even lightly comic.
