I was dumbfounded today. I could never believe that I did not see it for weeks despite the fact that it was in front of me many times a day virtually every working day and then like electricity flowing through an inactive bulb - pop.....
The story started about 6 months ago. On an interaction, we discussed an embarassing issue but in a perfect harmonius manner that necessitated a change in behaviour. Then I just forgot about it. I continued meeting this individual, a colleague, everyday for work and would meet him sometimes half a dozen times in a day oblivious to the discussion held earlier.
Today, we were in a discussion and all of a sudden I realised that the discussion we had many months ago has had a dramatic result and I could not see it change from the previous scenario.
I was blind despite seeing things.
It was a true awakening for me. How many more changes are there that I am seeing but not processing....
I learnt about the difference between hearing and listening. Here I have a new learning - seeing vs visioning.
This is new learning for me. जब जागो तब सवेरा है.
