Eyes directed inwards

Submitted by Stevgo (guest) on Mon, 04/27/2009 - 2:12am.

Eyes are for seeing outwards. Concern about one's disabilities and how others perceive them usually direct the eye inwards. The inward pointing eye cannot see what others perceive - but see reality; whether one likes it or not. In some cases the inward eye sees only what it wants to see, or creates a non-real image of that perception. Understanding that one's disabilities are part of one's strength may indeed take time and exercise in perception - but inevitably this realization becomes the reality. It did with me.
