There is a mysterious box …
No one knows what is inside.
Passerby A hears a loud roar, she things there is a monster inside.
Passerby B hears wailing, he thinks there is a baby inside.
Passerby C saw a little leaf sticking out, she thinks its a plant.
Passerby D saw a sword sticking out, he thinks its a tyrant.
Who is right?
Nobody knows, perhaps they all are.

Figuratively, it makes me think of internet anonymity.
The box is a real person, and the four witnesses are people who interact with this mysterious entity on a daily basis. They don’t know the age (A or B) and the gender (C or D), but they attempt to guess and have different opinions. ?
Or it could be a box with toys, you know, some toys make sounds just like those A and B described. I’m quite unsure about the plant, but swords can be toys as well.
You put a lot of thoughts into this! And well, it could be internet anonymity or a different perspective or perhaps bias-ness… It could happen in many things.
Hardly anyone can have a 3D view of something, but they’ll probably stick to what they believe is right (or what they’ve seen) and then act accordingly to that …
My thoughts were narrow, I totally get your point. ?
We tend to give more value to what we perceive than everything else. Not a wrong thing to do, in my opinion, but there should be a balance and it helps to be open-minded about certain things, especially when we want to engage in conversations and raise our knowledge and awareness. ?
Four people for the four faces of the cube (box), that makes sense.
Your thoughts are definitely not narrow … in fact you’ve come up with a lot to think about.
This is actually a “respond” to some events in my life (bck then), now you’re bringing more thoughts (open-mindedness) to the equation! 🙂
I am both. And this makes me kind of scary ?.
hehe … I don’t see why you’ll be scary…
actually many of us are one at different times
Probably so. Sometimes I like to say I have a split personality and there are 7 different persons inside of me ?. It’s actually fun to start a discussion like this one ??.
Haha, if you try to link the 7 personalities to your roles in life, perhaps you’ll see why … :p
Yes, its actually quite interesting … but also quite deep 🙂
Who knows, I may develop even more personalities. Fortunately, none of them resemble the ones in Split ?.
I am the passerby. I don’t stop till I know what’s inside. And I found a gem.
Wow, ok …
what kinda gem, do you mind sharing :p
I enjoyed your photo, I am the box
Thanks, but the photo is taken from online :p
Hmm… everyone seems to like the box 🙂
I am mysterious so therefore I am the box.
Hehe, I would rather be the box sometimes too …
Seeking is the answer but take care
Thank you, Pamela … … 🙂
