Power & Perspective

Ever have a time in your life when you just need some perspective? I surely do. One way I find it is by stargazing, or taking a walk in the woods. When you get out of yourself for a little while, sometimes those problems and issues which seem so large and so daunting will shrink back into their proper perspective. And if you are truly dealing with something huge, that perspective may provide you with a new way of seeing and tackling the problem. And, if nothing else, you'll get a little rest :-)

Here's a video called "Powers of Ten" will give you some perspective. There are several versions of it floating around, and this vid is not new, can't even remember when or where I first saw it. There's also a newer version of it narrated by Morgan Freeman that is cool, too. Whichever one you look at, it might give you a bit (or a lot) of perspective, and help you locate yourself in the grand scheme of things...
