Blind spots...2

As we steer through life, we will encounter many people along the way. We will have opportunities to know people and to develop relationships with them. We may even know a person well enough to realise his or her blind spots. We may even inform them of this, but usually their reaction is of a defensive nature as they may not realise that this is the case. And in the same way, we become defensive when others tell us our blind spots, as we think that other people have misjudged us. But is this the case, are we so blind that we may not realise the truth is there right in front of us?

But maybe deep inside, we know all this. We realise there may be truth in what others are telling us. But we make excuses for ourselves. We justify ourselves in a number of ways. And all this justifications and excuses provide greater cover for our blind spots, and we continue to steer through life not watching out for our blind spots, until one day, we crash and burn...

And then, its already too late to change!
