Sunday Soliloquy #1
We can all think of ourselves as being blind to one thing or another in our lives. But, if we can search for and try to find a way to amend whatever it is we are blind to, we can grow. Often, however, the search we conduct to find and alleviate our blindness is rebuked by others who do not wish us to "rock the boat" or go against the norms of day-to-day living. Yet, if we do not ask for or seek an end to whatever it is we are blind to, we can never gain insight (or sight) about our own deficits and failings.
To be able to see, identify, and rectify our failings is a gift. One that is difficult for us to aquire, difficult for us to want, and difficult for us to accept. Yet, it is impossible to grow without doing so.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
I have written some insightful pieces in my 25 years, but you have exceeded me by far. Did you write that?
