Jill and Maria Johnson, Girl Gone Blind, talk about a strange phenomenon that happens every now and again. Feeling the need to act more blind than one really is, or act less blind than one really is to justify other people's perceptions. Maria is a weekly contributor to the Morning Mix and a blogger at: www.girlgoneblind.com.
