The Whole Picture

Do we really have the complete, true picture?

How often do we believe we know the truth of something?

We may have some of the facts about it, but do we have the
complete picture?

When asked, “What is an elephant?” — and the answer is
“a trunk… a tail… large floppy ears… an extremely large body”
. . . each of those views is true!

However the COMPLETE truth is that it is ALL of those views
seen together as one!

If we can see only one of those facts from our limited view,
then we are only seeing a partial truth.

With the veil covering many realities, we see only partially
most of the time!

If we share our view of something with others
— with ones with open minds — we can often
get a more complete view of the reality of it
. . . a view nearer to the WHOLE PICTURE!
