-I don't always see a pair of socks I took off and left on the floor
-I don't always see the "to do" list left for me on the counter (but I will set my coffee cup right on top of it)
-I do not always see the dust in the windows
-I do not always see the bed needing to be made
-I do not always see when the laundry needs to be taken down out of the bathroom
-I do not always see the bath mat left on the floor after a shower
-I do not always see the EXACT moment the lawn needs to be mowed.
Blindness.
I have it.
You know who does see everyone of these things? You got it. My wife. She sees. Well. Very well.
The truth of the matter is, I have felt a little guilty about this. I have tried to work hard to see these things a little better. But, the guilt has left. Yes, you read that right the GUILT HAS LEFT! And it happened just the other day....
So, I finally received real TV. It has been something I have been working towards since I have been married over a year ago. And we finally just got DISH network. Needless to say I was pretty excited to come home and check out my new prize. When I walked through the door from work I rushed to check it out. My lovely wife was sitting in the living room (with the new DISH on). What would you think she had on with the vast new world of channels? She had on her normal free local news. BORING. The thing is even that was alright. why? HD. That is right, the local channel in HD. I looked at her and said do you see that clarity of the HD? Her response....I can't tell. I can't see.
WHAT?
Guilt left me right in that moment. Gone. Just like that. OK, maybe I can not see some things, but you my lovely bride can not see the awesomeness of that HD. Even. That is what we are. Completely even.
Here is what I have learned in the last day. We all see things differently and I am OK with that.
I notice you never have any comments. So here is mine, "we all see what is important to use"
