Theme: Reframing the View

In an era where opinions are easily influenced by the media, it is often difficult to perceive some things in a different manner. People are left unheard, issues are left undiscussed, and efforts are left unseen. Perhaps it is time to reframe the view and look at these things in a way that people and the media wouldn’t have thought of. Perhaps it is time to reach out to what is left untouched by the light and understand the matter in a way that broadens our perspectives.
