Witty, Intelligent & Addictive

See Past The Tunnel

By Sherry Riter 9 Comments

According to Webster’s Dictionary, tunnel vision is the “loss of peripheral vision” or the “extreme narrowness of viewpoint.”

If you have tunnel vision with your life and relationships, many wonderful experiences and opportunities will be missed.

Do you see the view in the first picture or are you taking the time to see the second picture?

tunnel view of fabric

lots of fabric on bolts

Stay open minded to new things…

tunnel view of rocks

Listen and look instead of always talking…

tunnel view of one flower

Be aware of the “tree” and the “forest”…

Enjoy all that life has to offer.

“One day your life will flash before you eyes,
make sure its worth watching.”
~Unknown~

“If you tell Life what it has to be, you limit it;
But if you let Life show you what it wants to be
It will open doors you never knew existed.”
~Unknown~
