Maybe You Don't See What I See

So often you hear, "we don't see eye to eye" and it's a sad statement really. It's especially sad when it's said by or about someone you love, someone you really want to feel and share in what you see. I've given it some thought and what it comes down to is perspective.  Where are you standing when you look at the picture.  We can both be looking at the same picture but our perception is based on where we stand.  Recently I have been telling people about my trip to Nebraska and the one consistent response is... "What a boring drive!" I felt a little hurt by this because I happen to like the drive. So I thought I would start asking what about the drive was so boring and the answers were ridiculous; it's brown, there's nothing to look at, (and my favorite) it's flat.  To me it's none of those things, it's heartland and farms, it's crops and cows and renewable energy.  It's my road home or the road to my husband's home.  It's all of the things other people said and it's all of the things I have said.
Same picture, different perspective.
How do you change where someone stands and bring them to stand by you?? Why would you want to?? When do you give up??
My sweet baby girl has been given an opportunity to go to a new school. With a bit of effort on her part she can almost guarantee entry to any college. So many wonderful positive opportunities and all she sees is sadness and hurt. Why? Her friends, her here and now. No Longview. She is standing to close to the picture. Please baby come stand by mama and see what I see.  Mama please come stand by me and see what I see. Do I force her to see? Quit trying? No way to meet in the middle? You can't paint perspective because no one will see the same picture as you. We can never stand in the exact same place.
