Re: Demons
hi,
my views on blindness: contrary to what most blind people and blindness organizations claim, blindness is a disability. It is not a minor inconvenience. It is not like hight, eye color or hair color. It is a serious disability. More serious than deafness in my opinion. Though there are more serious disability types such as deaf blindness and mental impairment. I do not view blindness as a part of me, or part of my personality. Blindness does not define me. I view it only as a physical disability and a medical condition. Blindness determines what you can and cannot do. For instance, I am currently studying english language teaching in one of Turkey's best universities (middle east technical university). My blindness caused me to make this job choice. Teaching is the best job in turkey a blind person can do. If I had been sighted I would have gone for medicine or genetics. But my blindness prevents me from doing these job
s. At one time I also contemplated being a computer tech. Cleaning off infected pcs etc. However since I would need help in safe mode and while using antimalware boot CDs, I again abandoned one of my dreams. Personally I would give anything to have sight, both because of the reasons above, and the possibility of developing a hearing impairment in my medical condition. So my recommendation to you rach rach, is Not to self-blind yourself. It might seem apealing to you at first, but you will deeply regret it if you do this. The world is built for sighted people. Blindness brings with it mobility and travel issues, in adition to accessibility issues. It also brings with it socialisation issues. Most girls don't want to date a blind guy. Also people can avoid you because of your blindness.
anyway, sorry for the long post
