Blinded

They say, that in history man is often blinded by

the immediate past.

It blinds us because we are in it.

Taking distance for the sake of objectivity

 is not always easy.

In order to see things clearly you sometimes

 just cannot go far enough.

Details of life blind us.

Our emotions blind us.

The mirrors around us distract us

from the more valuable goals in life.

It’s not that our eyes are too weak to see far enough,

they are just too full.
