Windows to the Soul...

 The phrase is known as the eyes are the windows to the soul. What does that mean for the people that can't see the distractions of the world? I think that means that low vision or blind people feel emotions in a way that a fully sighted person will never understand. Those people can feel love with everything they have without haveing to base love partially on what that other person looks like. Looks truely don't matter n this point. On the downside of that though they feel anger, anxiety, hurt, and depression deeper and far stronger. With no sight to see the beauties in the world too they feel the world threw emotions and threw touch. All those emotions make those people more than life itself. there just has to be that one person to realize it maybe even a group too...

Family...

Family is of the heart not the blood.

People that love you no matter the distance or time apart are family.

People who hold on and drag you out of the pit of despair are family.


People that make you happy just being in the same room with are family.

They make you smile when you didn't know you needed to smile.

They will hold you when u need an anchor.

They will be proud of you and love you when you don't think you deserve it.

Family is the heart not always the blood.

Hi... life happens

At the beginning of my Junior year of high school I found out I had a brain tumor that caused me to go blind...

I recovered fully after my surgery and went back to school at Lorain High. I finished all my credits in two semesters and got back to wrestling. I heard of a place that could help me learn blind skills. so I went to the Ohio State school for the Blind in Columbus for a year and four months. Where I learned Braille, Tech, and Mobility. I mean tech by doing things on the computer and phone that you cited people do too. I mean mobility by crossing streets, learning how to use a bus system, and learning how to get around being blind. I also joined some sports like Track, Goalball, Wrestling, and Swimming. Goalball is like blind soccer and ironically I learned how to swim being blind. I met some great people and lifelong friends who are also visually impaired.
