This summer I did one of those things I’d really, really recommend anyone to do at some point – put it on your bucket list. I went to see the Alhambra in Grenada.
Many of the windows and doors in the Alhambra are beautifully arched. What struck me was that I took a lot of photos, not just of what I could see, but what I could see either through a window or a door.
Looking at them again now it seems to me that they are enticing….they spark your curiosity and invite you to go and explore more.
That got me wondering about how we frame our views of the world. Not just physically, although it does make me think about the architecture and built environments in which we all live, but emotionally. Because I think we enter each day in a certain frame of mind. Maybe we change that frame (or maybe it feels like somebody changes it for us) during the day, but I wonder just how aware we are of those frames and how much they influence what we see.
Is it possible to just pause now and again and think about what frame is active?
Is it a frame of fear, or one of curiosity for example? Because each of those frames make the world look VERY different.
