Vision

Dec 10, 2004 14:25

It is a sad thing thing to walk across the street and have a man walking beside you; being guided by a dog and a white cane. This man or perhaps his dog had some training to do, because for some reason he was crossing the street diagonally. I helped him out and he was a bit astonished that someone would grab him by the arm at such a sudden pace. Once he crossed the street we parted ways, but I could not stop thinking about his words to me. "I am going to see my daughter perform in the talent show" he said. I thought that it was such an erratic choice of words. Had he been mocking his own misery or was it simply the way he felt.

Can a blind man see further than those with faultless sight?

I have given this a great deal of thought and I have come to realization that our ocular sight is only a curtain that thwarts our vision. More importantly people have lost vision altogether. We live in a world of blind man and women that stumble upon their own responsibilities. The lack of perception, the lack of involvement. Individualism is something very common in most industrialized cities. It is nothing more than being blind toward your needy neighbor, friend, sibling, etc. Hopefully one day people learn to see a bit further than their own limitations and acquire true vision.

On another note what is up? Diana from Jersey! the one with cross-country and track. Thanks for the comment on phobias. The reason that I am replying here is because I am actually really dumb and cannot seem to reply on the alternate "reply to comments section". Forgive my lack of intelligence.
