We are not blind but we don't see things as it should be

I was going home from work the other day when 2 blind men rode in the jeepney that i was riding. They were telling the driver where they will be dropped off since they can't see where the jeep was already heading. The driver asked further where this place they are referring to, i was just listening while other passengers where telling the driver where the exact place is. The two blind men very well described the place and the important landmarks. I came into realization afterwards, the driver who seems to know the place well and can see where his route is should know where exactly the blind men were heading since he is a driver after all, but it appears that the 2 blind men much knows the place and the landmarks when in fact they don't even see a thing. I myself have lived here for many years but didn't know the place where they are heading to. The place was a suite which i think they will be rendering their massage service since it's known here in my place that blind men are being trained for massage services. Why is it that we sometimes tend to not see things which are right in front of us? Sometimes we appear to be blind so that we don't see these places or these people around us. We are given eyes by God to use but we never use them properly. Those blind men were not given the opportunity to see God's creation but they see more that what people with two good eyes can see. What about you? Do you sometimes tend to be blind so that you can't see some things? Do you intentionally be blind to see everything as nothingness?
