Choosing Not To See
So many of us have our eyes open and good vision yet we do not see. It’s not because we’re incapable, but we just don’t look. We don’t want to see.
In U.S. politics, party members and supporters often summarily reject the ideas of other parties. Are they unilaterally against any ideas which don’t originate from their own camp? Or do they just refuse to see? The desire to be correct blinds us.
On a personal level, some turn their backs on the mirror when pressed to really look at themselves and their choices. Those people who want to believe something will not even consider an opposing view. This is most common with religious views. My way is right, every other way is wrong. There is no discussion.
