So much there is to see, but our morning eyes describe a different world than do our afternoon eyes, and surely our wearied evening eyes can report only a weary evening world.
In "Travels with Charley: In Search of America," author John Steinbeck reflects on the way our perception of the world changes throughout the day. He suggests that our morning eyes see the world with freshness and optimism, capturing the newness of a day. As the day progresses to afternoon, our views shift, influenced by our experiences and the weight of the day's events. By evening, eyes that have grown weary may only depict a tired and worn-out world, suggesting that time and fatigue can alter our outlook. Steinbeck emphasizes this evolving perception to illustrate how our moods and circumstances can deeply affect how we interpret our surroundings, highlighting the importance of perspective in reflecting on life.
