Lulu HartgenI keep seeing a post about blind people being mad at sighted people. It's made me think honestly. Of course there are things sighted people can do that I wish I could, loads of them. But what would be the point of being mad at other people because they can do what I can't? It's just such a complete waste of energy which I'd rather devote to finding ways of doing the things I want to do. I might just as well be mad at people who have healthy kidneys, or people who have generally better health than I do, or ... the list would go on and on if I thought like that. I'd rather count the many blessings I have, find ways to change what I can if I need to and accept the things I can't. I totally realize everyone's different, but that's my take on it anyway.
@lulu_bear Nobody can do everything, so if everyone was angry with anyone else who can do more than them, the world would be a very angry place. So accepting how we are is a very good plan as far as I'm concerned, even if it's normal to wish we could do more.
@frog67 Amen and amen! Wishing we could do more is a natural thing. Being mad at others because of what we can't do and they can isn't. In my view anyway.
