not the full picture

recently i visited a new church. during the time of singing there were 3 screens available to read the words. the one directly in front of me was the biggest screen with the sharpest display. the colours were brighter and the images very crisp. unfortunately there was a strip of pixels missing on the left of the screen such the rectangle was not symmetrical.

i only realised on my drive home that i spent the whole service looking at one of the other 3 displays even though it was slightly blurry and was at a bit of an angle to me, making the words a little harder to read.

and that's when i realised that we would rather have the full picture than a pretty one. i think that logic applies to more than just choosing what projector screens to look at.
