In ‘Fables: Animal Farm’ by Bill Willingham et al, Weyland Smith fashions a key to help unlock Snow White’s shackle. Due to a spell cast on him, he cannot, however make a key to unlock his own shackle, or even suggest how it can be made. It turned out that the key that unlocked Snow’s shackle could unlock his too. This reminded me of how the advice we dispense to others on how to solve their problems can often solve ours too. But just as friends might be reluctant to heed our advice due to their delusions, we too sometimes fail to heed the same advice we share – due to our own delusions.<\/span> It is as if we too have been enchanted with a spell… of delusion, that blinds us to our blindspots.<\/p>\n
