A friend on twitter posted a link to this blog today. While for the most part, I do not like to complain about being blind, sometimes it is frustrating, and other times I just want to stand in an open parking lot and scream to high heaven and wonder why I am this way – not so much because I can’t emotionally handle blindness, but I can’t emotionally handle others’ perceptions of me being blind.
Thankfully, I have many sighted friends who can see beyond blindness, and blind friends I can call on days when I really and truly hate it.
