We All Have Our Blind Spots
We all have our blind spots. What does this mean? Taken from The Book of Forgiving by Desmond Tutu and Mpho Tutu, it means "we all have moments when we behave without thought to peoples feelings....we often unwittingly hurt each other". In the book Mpho talks about how, "it is an incredible gift to have a friend who will lovingly hold up a mirror to my blind spots...lovingly does not necessarily mean gently or painlessly...." We should all have those friends that can lovingly hold a mirror to our blind spots. I am so lucky to have a couple of those friends. It is so very interesting to me that the friends who I love the most, are the ones we have had arguments, disagreements and misunderstandings. It seems in every cherished relationship, it is the ones that you go the deepest with that you have the most reward and depth. Every time you make it through the ruff patches and talk honestly, it seems the friendship becomes more incredibly real and valuable. Brene Br...
