Dragonfly
Look again. There's another angle.
What this friend is telling you
A dragonfly's giant eyes see almost all the way around, and it can fly forward, backward, sideways, and just hover in place over the glowing pond. It is never stuck seeing one way. Are you stuck on a problem? Completely sure you are right in an argument? Do the dragonfly. Hover a moment. Look from the other side. From your friend's side. From tomorrow's side. Things change shape when you move your eyes.
Watch out for…
being so sure you are right that you never once hover.
Try this
Pick one argument or stuck problem and honestly describe how it looks from the OTHER person's side. Out loud is best.
