Perspective

Perspective.
Personal
perspective.
Point of
view.
Programed.
Developed.
Nurtured
and honed.
Molded to
shape.
Fingers
of fate.
Each
different.
Programming
different.
Site based.
Blank Slate.
Filled.
Poured in.
Accident
of birth.
Traditions
fused.
Personal
views,
coerced.
Told,
instructed.
Molded.
History at
work.
Past
formats,
encourages
perception.
Dictates
personal
perspective.
What then
is truly
unique?
Force
fed the
future
in the
world
of the
past.

I never.longer think anything is unique John...I've said it before and I'll say it again...everything on a timeless loop just different players x

Agreed, we are mere empty vessels filled up by circumstance.
Thank you for reading MP.

Hello John, sorry I have been away. It is great to see you are still writing. This makes me think of the nature nurture debate. But I think Marion is right, things tend to repeat themselves. History has a pattern to it. We never seem to learn from our previous mistakes. Thanks for the food for thought

Oh this is brilliant! I have to say, I agree with both Marion and Gwen. History is proven to repeat itself and traditions and beliefs play a big part in this happening. We are all programmed/ influenced by our environment. Great writing x

Just want to add that I think this is an inspiring thought
