We see what others flaunt but not what their financial situation is.
We see others' success but not what they have gone through to achieve it.
We read a bestseller but know nothing about the iterations it has undergone.
We see a hero or a villain but not the context that made them so.
***
As humans, we mostly see the surface, not what lies underneath it.
We can all be a little better by training our eyes and mind to see the context, backstory, and process behind what we see on the surface.
