Blindspot

Have you ever wondered what it is you're oblivious to? I do. I know for a fact that there are things that I am simply clueless about; Things about my own being. Blindspots. Things that others see clearly about me that I simply don't see-- for whatever reason. Maybe because I don't want to, because I don't care enough to, maybe because I haven't looked, or am afraid to look, or don't know where to even start looking. I consider myself a fairly introspective person, but I also know that I see things through a clouded lens. The thing is, I'm not sure if the fog on the lens is good for me or something I use as an excuse to continue to bump into the obstacles. What would my life look like with a slippery clean, brand new view? Would I be good at walking without falling? I have found that the falling always hurts, but it has also made me better at it, my question is, is that really the point? Falling isn't necessarily effortless, but it usually the easier of two options. Why not get better at the more difficult things and less adept at the easy ones? Maybe I'm just crazy. Maybe THAT'S my blindspot!

I don't necessarily think you have a blindspot to spelling necessary, but you might. I'm just saying...

Yes, we all have blindspots, thank goddness. Some things just can't be known, helped, seen or thought til it's brought to our attention.

Some things just can't be known, seen, understood, or thought until someone brings it to your attention. That's what friends are for.

Now, since the third time is the charmer....you will see why I wrote comment number 2, it's because I had a blindspot and mis-spelled a word...go figure!!!

It all comes around doesn't it now? Good day.
