When you gaze out your window — real or figurative — do you see the forest first, or the trees?
I think I’m the “tree” type person…
I see individual people and items…
I look at people’s mannerisms… body language… appearance…
what they might have with them… kids … a pet … an older person…
how they are dressed for the occasion…
I look at nature passionately…
Loving every inch… From the color of the sky… the brightness of the green foliage…
the prettiness of color in the flowers… the raindrops making drips on the window
… the sun shining making objects sparkle…
I look at each materialistic item as to it’s purpose… it’s usefulness…it’s uniqueness… how old it is… what it will make better… if placed in the right spot…. who might enjoy it as a gift… the craftmanship… homemade or machine-made…
I feel I practically unwrap … touch and explore of everything…
Yes… I love the whole picture… the “forest” …
but, the details… the “trees” are what’s most important to me!

Yes, I can see that you would be a tree person…creative, and you take time for others…I’m also a detail person, although I think it manifests differently in me. ~ Sheila
at least I see myself that way… sometimes people see us differently…
