प्रश्न
The same landscape appears different at different times. What message can we draw from this?
उत्तर
- 'Difference in perception' is what we can mainly draw from this. Life will always offer happiness and difficulties to everyone but the difference lies in how we deal with situations. The same glass can appear half-full to one and half-empty to the other. It all depends on how we perceive things.
- The given line can convey a variety of themes, such as: a single ray of light can eradicate all darkness, exactly as the silvery moonlight does on a gloomy night.
- At the same time, it conveys the concept that an object or person might have numerous qualities or characteristics that emerge in different settings. Light may depict someone or something positively, but darkness may not.
- As a result, we should avoid being lured by flashy 'appearances'. Another perspective is that the same thing may appear different at different times. As a result, people's views of the same thing can differ over time and among themselves.
