what do your eyes mean to you?

Question

I need ideas related to their seeing ability and not them being physical features for beauty etc. I think I could be more specific and say what does seeing mean to you.

Answer 1

You have heard the symbolic saying "the eyes are the window to the soul".......

The eyes represent one's ability to take in understanding simply by pointing one's eye in this direction or that.

The eyes are the window that allow the inner soul to peer out at a world of chaos and learn to internally reason with it.

Eyes are sight for reason....... and represents wisdom.....

Seeing is a major source of joy for me. I can see the mountains and valleys, the people and the places where there are no people, I can see the wonderful colors of a season, or the excitement of a design magazine. I can study great art endlessly, for I am an artist. I drink in the world with my eyes, and take what I get to my heart. I do not lay my head on a pillow, but joyously slip into sleep on my pillow covered with a shiny lavender satin pillowcase that has a border of tiny hand embroidered daisies scattered on it. My sheets are not blue, but are instead, the ocean I float upon while I gaze softly at the warm, yellow sand on a private island. My mind is in my eyes.

Answer 3

I have tried once walking in the middle of a football pitch when there was no one around with my eyes close to realised how claustrophobic it can be when our sense of space and direction in that space built by our vision is no longer there to assist us. I knew then that I will not bump into something and that I do have to change my direction, but every time either my urge to open my eyes overcame my resolve or I felt foolishly directionless treading along with my uncertain steps.

Our eyes are perhaps most commonly used and also abused aspect of our sensory system. Our visual ability make more sense of this world to us than any other ability, our eye, I believe mean world to us. Seeing as ability in the mind is in response to our need to steer our way round obstacles and towards a certain point in our physical world. The cost of seeing, however, is being able to see along only one direction at a time, whereas our mind perceives its reality in a multidimensional way, more like a spherical spread of light round a candle.

But how often we take them for granted and see things in unworthy ways of seeing, and then things that we can see but do not see just because we see something else instead. So often we cast a glance or two so casually upon things and assume that we are seeing them. The superficiality of vision often distract us form seeing even the most obviously important things in the field of our vision. What we see often becomes the main obstacle in the way of what we can see.

As I said before my eyes mean world to me, a world in which I find very hard to choose something that is really for the good of the purpose of my mind.

Answer 4

The ability to see is taken for granted . You only start to really appreciate the benefits of sight when you are danger of going blind. It isn't just the fear of dependancy on other people it's the things that you enjoy that you will no longer by able to do. I have a lot of serious problems with my sight now but have decided to take each day as it comes and I'm reading everything I can lay my hands on!

Answer 5

I think that you can 'see' in different way - when I took up painting a few years ago, I to look at objects in a different way, to analyse the depth perception angle, to try and see what different colour meant - if you look at any one object that is blue, you can see that there are numerous different bit and shades of blue there. After that I took up photography and had to analyse things from a different perspective, such as the natural light and shadow that were cast on objects. This meant that I began viewing things in a different way.

Recently I have been viewing things differently again, as I have worked with people on welfare and with mental health problems, I can spot these people if I see them in the street much more quickly than I used to, so I am seeing the same things, but viewing them from different angles, and deducing different conclusions from the information that I see.

Answer 6

They mean I can work at most jobs (who works with their eyes closed?).

I can enjoy hobbies that require sight (reading).

I can walk somewhere without a cane and counting steps or worrying that someone moved the furniture.

I can see the silly things toddlers do. They make me smile.

I can stop people from having accidents or fighting. (Like kids jumping off the roof and two kids fighting over a favorite shirt - that just happens to be MINE.)

I can enjoy the view of a sunset or a pink flower or a plate of pasta. These make me feel happy and peaceful. (But you didn't want to know this part.)

I can recognize someone in a big crowd and yell, "Bob! Remember me? Get over here and we'll talk!"

It is easier to put on your clothes if you can see them.

Answer 7

Eyes are the windows we use to look out on the so-called physical reality. They are designed as a limitation so we can only see in one direction at a time, outward.

This limitation keeps us focused on the externals so we can learn the lessons that the external world provides for us. Having them point outward keeps us from noticing the truth about who we are too.

Answer 8

The eyes, give me the ability to recognise the loved ones in my life, to witness the first flowers of spring, to see the innocence of a new born. I think the eyes are one of God's most precious gifts, they also capture someone a flash of the eye can reel in a potential mate, my eyes are grey, most people say there my best feature.

Answer 9

Try thinking as a blind person for a while. Try making it upstairs and down without bashing into things. Try doing the washing up while blind folded. The difference is we can take the blindfold off, the blind person is stuck in the dark and their house is a mess because they cannot see where they dropped something or kicked over a trash bucket.

Answer 10

Without sight you would never see the beauty in the world, the faces of loved ones, the sun , scenery. all the things you appreciate.
