What I don't understand is: Why should a blind person always be interesting to others? The more relevant question should be: How can a visually challenged person lead a life without relying up on others to a considerable extent? But I am sure that the subject crops-up on the forum at various levels. In a word, we don't have to lead our life just to make it interesting to others. Rather let's be concerned with issues that are far more important to our community.
