We each have a blind spot. It appears to me that in the encounter between Zimmerman and Martin, ego met ego, pride met pride, and blind spot met blind spot.
I don’t even know what my blind spot might be, even though a few recent dramatic events should have taught me. Did my blind spot contribute to the defeats? I don’t know.
“Did my blind spot contribute to the defeats?”
Sure, but don’t get hung up on it. That delays the learning process. I may change my mind later- I have before- but nearing 60 I think the purpose of life is mostly accepting what fools we are.
