Perspective
Perspective - The new title of my short film.
Perspective means reviewing your stance and recognizing that there may be other views. We are always so limited by our one way of seeing the world. No matter how we may try, you can never -truly- see life from anothers eyes. We can put ourselves in their shoes via imagination and the toolsets given to us through classes, but it is always still us within those circumstances. We can never be anyone else, and why would we want to. Embracing the truth in yourself, embracing your own individuality and breathing your own life into your work is a constant challenge and ever-changing, as we are ever-changing.
It's a tricky thing for me, because I am always so curious about other peoples' lives. I want to understand their beliefs, their stances, their passions, and their fears about life, the world, love, and the universe. I want to wrap my head around deep desires, and inner darkness, and pettiness, and fury, and unbridled love, and silly little habits and everything that makes us human and everything that makes us different. The hardest part about all of this is feeling like I have so little time to explore. I wish our lives were longer so we could breathe in more of life's crazy moments. I'm insatiably curious, and immeasurably distant, always, from all there is to know in the world. Our limit is our perspective. It is also our greatest quality. It is our experience, our journey, our life, and consequently, our voice.
