There is one fact. There is one view. And then there’s another. And another. In truth, there are many.

The fault lies not in seeing differently, but in believing our view is the only one.

Our biases quietly shape what we see. They tint our lens, colour our reality, and limit our understanding. But the moment we recognise this, we create space for perspective.

To see things in better light, we must first acknowledge that another light exists.

So, what are you looking at today?

More importantly—how are you looking at it?

Quick, what do you see?

Some buildings become more than mere buildings. They are conceived in a way for a reason. Designed so. Built and marketed so.

Then they change. They shift in the mind. Based on memories and and emotions over time.

This is the Discovery Of India building at Nehru Centre at Worli, Mumbai. Built in memory of Jawaharlal Nehru and houses a variety of spaces, curating good stuff.

I was taken by the interweaving of concrete that I saw for the first time. Or rather, became present to when viewing it from a different angle with different company.

What do I see?

I see the connectedness of the world. We are all in it together. We might have different windows for viewing the world from, but that’s not the world! It’s just one view of the world.

Over to you. What do you see?
