I have often heard people say that 'some thing is some thing when seen in some perspective'....
I know this can become potentially boring rhetoric but recently I am caught in this dilemma. I gave my resignation letter. And of course I had my valid reasons from 'my perspective'.

Hmmm... It's what's behind the perspective that matters I think. I mean- your perspective was formed coz of many many thoughts, actions, events, beliefs right? Go back to that and may be that's less confusing?
I enjoyed reading your confusion. Are kya yaar, perspectives are not like skin right? points of view do change.. if you own your perspective fully then i call you a 'perspective fundamentalist'
