Introduction

If you have never spoken to a manikin, wore one dark blue and one black shoe shopping, or said “yes Ma’am” to a “sir,” … and laughed… you may not understand this blog.  However, hang in there and perhaps after we have become acquainted we will have laughed, cried, or at the very least, understood some of the spiritual abstractions we call life.    In my own words from my heart to your eyes, or from my eyes to your heart, in simple language, I present stories, poems, and experiences from both myself and some of my blind friends as a special gift of encouragement.       

 

I have not done anything grand, such as climbed Mount Everest, hiked the Appalachian trail, run a long marathon, participated in a sports event, nor had my name on the hit parade as quite a few blind people have done.  I take off all kinds of hats to those of you who have made these amazing things happen.

 

I, on the other hand, am just an every-day ordinary person that, except for my dog, you would never notice in a crowd, unless I bumped into you accidentally.

 

Every day I work very hard trying to hold my heart in the heavens with my feet on the ground.  This is not just a testimonial journey to grace, it’s a walk, a thought, a time, a space, a tear, but mostly JOY!  Prepare to laugh!
