"Don't think, look!" is the famous quote from the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein in his work Philosophical Investigations. His focus was to take philosophy out of the realm of words that can be imprecise and focus on what can be seen. Put differently, words can only give a partial view of what has been seen.
Seeing can be done from different angles and dimensions. The focus can change. What is important can change. The picture can be the same but our way of seeing may differ. Our visions will be different. How we see is as important as what we see.
We can have the same set of facts on a sheet of paper yet still see different conclusions. Perhaps seeing is not easy.
