Ironically, the only way to see clearly is to stand at a distance. You might be focused, but that doesn't mean you are seeing correctly. Sometimes, you have you to grab the camera from the idiot taking all the shots in your life because they don't realize the lens is dirty.
Having margins in your life strips away external voices and allows that person to remember and honor the true self within.
~ Angela Lynne Craig

~ Jude Morgan
