Hidden In Plain Sight

In some of our landscapes, the same problems occur over and over again. Perhaps our lovescapes make us unhappy, or our workscapes reveal our incompetence. It may be that our pleasurescapes bring out addictive or competitive behaviors. Sometimes our beliefscapes test, rather than inspire, our faith.

When things go wrong, the solutions are usually hidden in plain sight, lost within the mindlessness of habit.  It is when things fall apart, in the moment of crisis, that the opportunity to notice new qualia arises. When our usual landmarks and pathways fail to provide, then consciousness comes back into our lives.

Only when we begin to see what has been hidden in plain sight, then our landscape really changes. Then we can solve our problems.
