There are varying degrees of “obvious” and no single person will completely agree with you on what is or is not obvious.

You know the situation. You’re trying to explain something to someone that’s so obvious, yet you can’t seem to get it through to them no matter how hard you try.

The problem is that what’s “obvious” depends on so many factors: experience, faith, occupation, age, etc. The important (and sometimes most difficult) part is realizing your differences and using that knowledge to help in explaining what seems so obvious.

Nothing’s as obvious as it seems. And sometimes that’s a good thing. Obviously.
