When You Change the Way You Look at Things, the Things You Look at Change

• How do you look beyond what you believe to be true, fixed, or finite?
• Sometimes what we see is not what we see.
• We most often understand polarities from extreme ends. I propose we shift our focus and look to the middle ground.
• Recall what I talked about in Thinking Queerly, Week 1, “Divisiveness Is an Illusion on Either Side of Balance,” what is the single point of origin, the middle-ground, the gap in-between both sides of the argument, polarity, or binary.
• Within gender identities, the middle-ground is humanity.
• In something more complex like a debate or an argument, there is no way that both sides could have a logical argument in which side understood each other if they weren’t in fact coming from the same middle ground!
• Just because you think you know how things are, how do you know for certain? What are you seeing which is proof of what you are seeing that is factual and provable in reality?
