“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands, but in seeing with new eyes.”

This quote, by Marcel Proust, is about life’s journey of discovery. It’s a journey that’s not solely about discovering new places. Rather, it’s the journey of discovering new perspectives–learning new things, gaining new insights, having a better understanding. When we manage to see with a new point of view, we get to simultaneously see our circumstances and environments with new eyes though they haven’t change.
