Blind Confidence
As I was dragging myself up to the library a few minutes ago, I noticed a young blind guy making his way down the steps. I steer clear of anyone carrying that white stick because I've already had a few close encounters. I view it as a warning to all within a 15-foot radius: Beware! This guy, however, could trip me any day of the week. He was gorgeous. Not the type of guy I'm typically attracted to, he had several tattoos and a pierced eyebrow. For some reason, though, I couldn't stop gawking. I found myself thinking, I could totally nab him; he's blind! And, How cool would it be to date a blind guy - I'd never have to feel insecure about how I look! I watched as he approached me, admiring his beautiful arms and worrying that he might stumble on the last step. When I realized I was beginning to stare, I bashfully looked away. Then it dawned on me that he can't see! With the confidence of a super model, I locked my gaze on him until he had passed me by. It felt great.

awesome. i absolutely loved this post.
You make me laugh. The whole time I was thinking though, that some blind poeple who carry canes CAN see a little. For example did you know my step-dad is blind enough to carry a cane, he just doesn't like to... So wouldn't it be funny if he could see you and is like, OH YEAH she's checking me out!
This post is awesome, I love it! You have made my day.
