Don't Blame The Window

Lately, we make a big fuss, such annoying noise about framing analysis. Which is right: the perspective of positivist, or constructivist. We wonder why was reality treated as bricks. We question about interest, politic and economy. We mind the conspiracy.
--------And I must say: whatever it might be, I won't mind being framed, indeed.
Look, if this a house that we live in, a 'frame' should be the window (says Riza Darma Putra Quoting Tuchman) . When you beheld the outside (realities), you must find limitation, at how the window serve it for you. Is the window too small, is it too wide? Is the window clean enough, is it dusty?
Accept the circumstances of the window. As a matter fact, the only way left to us that we could monitor the outside is: approach the window, and see what behind it. If only you could be ignorant about the weather, then don't even open the curtain. And if only you want to be comprehensive about understanding the outside, then have a walk to another window, have another sight of the outside.
Don't blame the window for its condition.
