Day to day routine makes it easy to become unaware of the picture of life outside of oneself. It is difficult perhaps even impossible to really understand how our decisions impact the things we do not know. How do we reconcile action if we are innately unaware of the reaction? Stepping back from the world of our own creation helps us to see the things we would otherwise overlook.
