Sometimes crazy thoughts come to my mind.
Like, what if...I became both blind and deaf? Will I be able to face a world of darkness and silence?
A world of -
...no faces
...no voices
...no sunsets
...no flowers
...no music
...no Internet
...no television
...no movies
...no coloring books
...the list is verrrrrrrry long!
But then, I would still have the sense of taste, the sense of touch, and the sense of smell, such that I can savor and appreciate -
...the taste of all kinds of food
...the taste of various types of beverages
...the comforting touch of a friend or loved one
...the feel of soap on my skin
...the sweet smell of perfume
...the lovely fragrance of flowers
...the list is also verrrry long!
If I were both blind and deaf, I will try to learn braille so I can read and communicate through it. I will try to write more books to earn money since I can no longer work as a marketing research consultant.
Oh well, no use thinking of something that is not likely to happen anyway.
Thank You, Lord, for the gifts of sight and hearing!
