Faith
On my way to work yesterday, I saw a blind man walking through the intersection in front of me. In that moment, I realized how dependent we have become solely on our eyes.At first glance, I felt bad for this man. I thought to myself, how hard it must be to have to trust in the world you live in without being able to use your sight for judgement. But then I realized that he is probably much better off than we are.This man is using his inner voice, his intuition to guide him. He has trust and faith that he will be alright; that he will be able to get to the other side of the road. He is trusting in what he cannot see. Maybe our eyes have actually led us astray. We depend on them to tell us everything. Our eyes cannot tell us what is in our future, therefore we have a very hard time trusting that it will work out as it should. We are constantly fearful of the unknown, what we cannot see, which keeps us stuck in a situation that no longer works for us. There is a whole world of possibilities out there. In order to experience a full life, the life we were sent her to live, we will need to close our eyes and trust in what we cannot see.
