Because we can never see absolutely clearly, we can never see all that is 'there.'   

It pays to recognize I am not only always looking through some sort of distorting lens, but that there is always the possibility that not everything is within my field of vision




   We can never see all there is because we are humans not omniscient deities.

   It's certain that not everything is even in the field of humanity in totality.
