The Alexandrite is a rare gemstone that has the unique distinction of appearing to change colors in different lighting. This quality perfectly symbolizes the shifting nature of understanding. Like an Alexandrite, what we read and how we perceive the information depends upon any number of variables. As a result, each reader will see something different when looking at the same text.
