blind

Went to Jack in the Box for our snack before we have our proper dinner and as I sat waiting for my sister to came back with our order, An oddly behaved man caught my attention. He was biting a packet of sauce, and then quaffing it, followed by another packet until the several packets on his tray were opened and vacuous. As he moved his hand slowly towards one of the 2 burgers he had bought, I then realized that he was actually blind.
Immediately, I felt a pang of guilt for judging his unusuality of appetite, and then I started to wonder to whether or not he knew that the packets and packets of sauce he ate were meant to be spread onto his burgers instead of eaten individually. And then I felt sorry.
I mean, for me, if I were to be shut in a pitch dark room for 2 minutes, I would be crying helplessly. I would not want to move, I would choose to stay in my comfort zone and stay there until the lights came back on. I would be so scared because I do not even know or even realize what was actually happening to me and everything around me. I would be ashamed, and sad, and feel alone, somehow.
I just wish that, there would not be anymore blind people because, I just cannot imagine how scary it would be, to not see anything, to not be able to see the things that even a baby could do before they started anything else (except crying, of course)
So PEOPLE, let's all pray for these people, not necessarily so that they would be able to see again, but also, so that they would have the strength, courage and chances to live their life to the fullest! =)
