the picture of the world in the minds of blind people, i think that`s the real world... not tainted by the illusions we come across in our lives...sometimes i wonder what blind people see in their dreams...do they even see in their dreams?...do they even dream?

Ah... very nice...

I shudder at the thought of how people born blind live in this world, and what concept of Reality they have in their minds. It`s quite frightening even to think for a moment that, God forbid, if anyone went blind how miserable life can get. But there are blind people out there who don`t care if they can`t see... they carry on their lives just like normal people. Just like those two born blind brothers who were interviewed on GEO TV... they sang and played the keyboard, drove cars and did everything else normal people do! It`s all about determination and a positive outlook.

Keep writing Hassan!
