So I could say that seeing is not the same as observing, when we observe we realize some details that we see even daily and we leave them aside, leading a quieter life is something complicated nowadays, the days go by very quickly, the months too, look, this month is already ending, daily chores do not allow us to enjoy something as simple as seeing the movement of the branches of the trees but if we stop to see it we can thank GOD for something so simple .
I agree with everything you've said. And... Well said.
I do think observe and see can sort of be used synonymously, but I get your point and... A lot of times the eyes "see", but the brain doesn't recognize and "observe" certain details.
But, yes things are so complex now it really is amazing to be reminded of the very simple and instrinsic things!
