Towards this world I am ambivalent. Seeking not for retribution but focusing on clarity of mind. One may have a tenuous grasp on reality and still, achieve this. For a blind man in the fog has the same chance as the sighted. Self-reliance and intuition are his eyes. As clear as day he walks his way. Only he knows his own heart.

Perfect picture and so much beauty and truth. I had a grandmother and great aunt who were blind, and they were remarkably self-reliant.
