It depends upon how you look at it

It depends upon how you look at it..

Today I had to accompany my father to local vegetable market.I wasn't very keen to go,but I did so to give company to my father-my care taker since my arrival in this world.Incidentally,my cousin ,who is a major in the Indian army,was also here today and we were busy debating about a project planning for our native place.I was explaining all the merits of this project and he was stuck with the impossibility of the proposal.We carried through our discussion even in the vegetable market.I was telling him that it was easy and possible and he was contesting it as difficult and impossible.As we were just entering the market, we heard a mother and daughter duo talking to each other.The daughter was saying,"Oh,it seems ,this is the end of the market." It contradiction in her statement struck me as we had just entered the market and it was the entry to the market.But I soon realized the reason behind her contradictory statement.Actually,they had entered from the other end of the market.So they were true in their statement as far as their point of reference was concerned.But it wasn't true for us because our point of reference was just the opposite.I laughed and shared the new found wisdom with my brother,who could not help but smile at the new realization about " perspective" in life.
