Have you ever stopped at a "scenic overlook"? I have stopped at several, some scenic, others not so. However, from most overlooks, you get to see a broad, wide, panoramic view - the big picture.
When you are afforded a wide view of things and get more information to evaluate, you can, usually, make better decisions. Of course, you do have to use the information you acquire.
Today's word is a quote from William James, which says, "The art of being wise is knowing what to oveelook." To that, I add, "Pick your battles wisely."
Sometimes, we want to look at every single thing, which can cause us to make foolish decisions. If we will wisely focus on the important things, we will learn to overlook those things that aren't worth fighting about.
Be Blessed,
