1 John 3:2
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Your beliefs will be the light by which you see, but they will not be what you see, and they will not be a substitute for seeing.
- Flannery O'Connor
God does not have hands, we do. Our hands are God’s. It is up to us what God will see and hear, up to us, what God will do. Humanity is the organ of consciousness of the universe ... Without our eyes the Holy One of Being would be blind.
- Lawrence Kushner
Once there is seeing, there must be acting. Otherwise, what is the use of seeing?
- Thich Nhat Hanh

Along these lines, I think it was Thoreau who said, he who sits down to write must first have stood up to live...or something like that.
Good advice for all we bloggers...
sort of like the, 'be ye doers of the word and not hearers (or see'ers) only', advice from the good book
but from what I know of you, you are spending a good deal of your life in the doing as well as the seeing, hearing and writing
so no need for guilty feelings here
