You Cannot Explain a Giraffe Decision to a Turtle

Giraffes and Turtles–they occupy the same space, but they don’t share the same view.
The giraffe can be in the same geographical location as the turtle, but the giraffe eats from the tops of the trees, and the turtle moves through the grass.
What ultimately happens in the lives of people is that “We eat on the level of our vision”.
When you are a giraffe and you get criticism from turtles, the turtles are reporting the view from the level they’re on. If you understand this, you won’t be moved by what the turtles say. –T.D. Jakes
