Calibration

Doppler radar allows for so many things that we do today to be done with relative ease. While historically used primarily in military and meteorological issues, the science has been mainstreamed into our everyday life over the past few decades. It literally gives us the ability to see what we ordinarily could not see and to gather certain facts such as the size, speed, and etcetera of those things that are beyond our physical sight and judgment limitations. But, even science, and in this case radar, has to be calibrated and recalibrated to ensure that the data that is fed to us is an exact replica of the object being followed.<br /> <br /> Our lives can sometimes fall into the same situations whereby a need for calibration is required. We often look at life very much like a radar looks at its targets through a cone-like projection. It begins in a very narrow scope at its closest proximity to its antennae and then expands in width as it goes forward. We have a series of objects that fall into our cone and some of them are more prominent as they are closest to us and some of them are smaller in detail as they are just beginning to find a spot on our "internal" radar screen. But, we must always be conscious of all of those objects and to be sure that we are measuring them correctly and adequately as they move toward us. Calibration assures that we do not perceive those objects with data that is incorrect.<br /> <br /> Our standards for calibration are established much differently than that of a device that emits doppler signals. We do not utilize tuning forks or other testing procedures to ensure accuracy. We are limited to recalibrate based on life's circumstances that we encounter as well as primal gut feelings. Based on placing priorities to those objects in our personal cone's field, we are able to evaluate each of them and their sense of urgency and overall importance as to when and where we will react to them as they move toward us. It is a constant shuffling, evaluating, relocating and recalibrating of those items that allow us to keep our lives in a manner of organization that it necessary for some semblance of success and achievement.<br /> <br /> Seems simple
