BLIND

What would the world be like if humans are ‘blind’ to superficial and physical attributes of another man?

Will it make starting a relationship easier? Will it be easier for people to make new friends?

How many times have we formed illogical and inaccurate perceptions of other people simply based on the fact that they are not that good looking or simply based on the sole reason of ‘I just don’t like that person’s looks.’

Will there be lesser breakups because people will not be so superficial and just get together with another person mainly because of that person’s looks but because of that person’s character and goodness which is what they person is actually made up of.

Will the world be a more racial harmonious place to live in if we’re blind to the physical and superficial attributes of man?

There’ll be no races because we can’t differentiate.

We will not mindlessly brush off what someone said in class as rubbish which primary aim is to ‘smoke’ their way through during class and earn class participation points simply because that person is an “India Indian”(no offence) or because that person is a “PRC”(no offence again). –Cos I swear that people from other races does that as well.

Well well well, but all these are easier said than done. It’s human nature to form stereotypes and perceptions about the people that they come into contact with to economize mental effort.

So what we can do is to try to shield off, to reject or to delay all these beliefs and mindsets from the beginning and only come to a conclusion when we really get to know that person that we are dealing with.
