Observe something or someone with great interest
There are jobs, activities that require the person who performs them to focus and pay close attention to it so that the result is successful, as expected.
Meanwhile, when this does not happen, that is, if we do not pay attention to what we do, it will be certainly a problem, because most likely what we are doing will not come out of the expected way.
On the other hand, when there is something that we like too much, that gives us pleasure, we usually contemplate it in a special way, with great interest, for example, the sea, the Mountain, a natural landscape fabulous for the beauty that emanates, someone we love, among others.
Take something or someone into consideration
On the other hand, contemplating, also supposes the
consideration of something or the fact of taking into account something or someone. “I will contemplate your case when the time comes, although, for now it is impossible that I can change your schedule.”If we want to achieve a certain objective in our work, we must evaluate, consider, various variables and factors, put them into practice, to those who are analyzed as more positive, and thus be able to achieve the success that is sought.

And the fact of satisfy someone, for example by pleasing them with something they like , is usually designated with the term contemplate. “I enjoy looking at my husband, I don't know why you don't understand.”
Association with the spiritual and religion
Meanwhile, the action of contemplating, especially when it is associated with contemplating questions of a spiritual or religious nature, implies, the approach on the part of the contemplating subject, to a state in which calm, peace, and silence take over the moment.
