My ophthalmologist drew close as he examined my eyes. "Hmm. they’re pretty thick." He pulled back. "When we removed the cataracts, maybe some sight will be restored, especially on the left eye." He patted my hand. "But I don’t want you to get your hopes up high, or disappointed or discouraged if it doesn’t happen."…

Part 1

I am like an open book being read by a blind man

Everything he needs to know is there, but he can't see it.

Maybe then, he could at least feel it!

Ya know, I have many days go by when life just kind of sits there, isn't wonderful but it ain't bad. Then along comes a Monday from hell and I remember that 'boring' isn't necessarily bad. In my other job where creativity is NOT rewarded, I get to experience people who aren't having so much fun at what they do, and now and then they feel the need to make everyone miserable.

Hawkeye once said when he was rescuing a dying soldier, "Don't let the Bastard Win!" I remember as a kid not…
