In one, we take a very broad mature perspective on things, not just horizontally - as things are right now for us & everyone & everything else in the world, but also vertically - taking the past & future into account.
In the other, we have a very young, narrow, self-centered perspective - fearful, exclusively-about-poor-me.
The first perspective, does include ourselves - but in a balanced, rational relationship to the whole!
The second, is completely egocentric. Totally ignoring our human & non-human ecology - the home which gives life to & sustains our very being - is unsustainable & makes no sense, like thrashing one's home during a "party".
Can we learn to FEEL which of these two states of being we're inhabiting?
Can we keep choosing to embody the one that FEELS healthier?
