The Noticer by Andy Andrews is a great book on
perspective. It tells about a man
named Jones. It’s set in a small
gulf coast beach community… in fact, I think I’ve vacationed in that very spot!
Jones encounters people at low points
in their lives and he brings a different, very fresh perspective to them and
through that encounter, their lives become transformed and they begin to see
new potential and possibilities and have their hope renwewed.
The Noticer helps me to remember to see things through the perspective of another. When I get bogged down in the details of life and get frustrated, angry, disillusioned, etc, I need fresh perspective. The Noticer helps remind me of that need to look at things from a different angle or through fresh lenses. When I do… Hope is renewed, Faith is strengthened and the junk in my life doesn’t seem so overwhelming!
