So if we realise that everyone has blind spots, should we be more accomdating of others, and more accepting of others? Sometimes, no matter how many times you tell a person of their blind spot, they will still not be able to register what you say to them, as in their mind, they will not be able to comprehend about the fact that they have a blind spot. How should we deal with it?
At first we may have compassion and may even emphasise with them. After all, we realise that all of us have blind spots. And as the problem continues, we begin to get frustrated at the person, and may even give up, as we think that person cannot be changed because their blindspot is too great for them to realise.
But maybe the person who should change is ourselves. Maybe we should just accept that everyone is weak, and that we must accept people as they are, with all their blindspots attached. We should learn to bear with them if we value their relationship with us. Afterall, maybe it is our own blindspot that is affecting the way we see them.
I know this is all fine in theory, but in practice, it is still difficult...
That is why I admire my God, who despite all our flaws and weakness, continues to hold out His arms for me, even though I continue to fall at the same spot so many times. He continues to take me back no matter how hard I fall, and how low I become. He continues to be there for me, no strings attached, and continues to see me as His child, even though I have long forgotten Him.
And in my view, we should learn to treat others and accept them in the same way!
