I Am Thankful For My Eyesight

Without my eyesight it would be so much harder to write, to draw, to see the smiles that melt my heart in the eyes of children and the people I love, and to see bugs in my food.

Ha! I didn't read your post carefully enough yesterday - totally missed the bugs in your food bit! I am thankful that there generally AREN'T bugs in my food! :)

I had a lot of blind friends, and they managed just fine with all sorts of things like telling time, knowing how much each bill was worth in their wallet, getting around... but a bug or a worm in your food? I just don't know how they'd get around that. I don't even think they make guide dogs for that ;)

I suppose the saving grace is that most bugs aren't poisonous, so as long as the bug was dead, they'd never know they ate it.

So... you about ready for that snack now? ;)
