Blind Spots

     Every eye has a blind spot.  Usually we are unaware of this physical condition.  As we age, certain eye degeneration can cause a darkened spot in our central vision.  Some strokes may also limit vision. We compensate by using our stronger eye or our peripheral vision.
     We can also develop a psychological blind spot when logic and reason do not function well with a particular situation.  We can't seem to see what is obvious to others.  We see what we want to see instead of facing unpleasant facts.
     Some of us only focus on our own perspective.  We concentrate on what we already believe and seldom look at other possibilities.  Our own vision makes us blind to other points of view.
     Our physical vision has limitations.  Our emotional outlook can limit facing the facts.  Our narrowed perspective can stop us from understanding other views.  Be aware of your blind spots.
