Believing is the new “Seeing”

“I’ll believe it when I see it.” There’s something wrong with this sentence. To a certain extent, it could be true.

A well-known fast foods chain aired a TV advert recently that shows a pottery wheel with a beautifully shaped clay pot perched on it, spinning and spinning around, with the potter nowhere in sight. As the wheel continues to spin, the clay begins to distort, losing its shape, until it suddenly goes flying off the wheel and lands on the floor in a shapeless lump of clay. The first time I saw the advert, I was struck by how elegantly it compares with the way so many of us live our lives. (A compariso I’m quite sure the fast foods chain is totally oblivious of.)
