Blind
“Small pieces. Details in pictures. You don’t see all the colors.”
“That’s because I _can’t_.”
“But you can. You’re just taught not to see it.”
“But I could_ never _see_ _it._”_
“I know it seems hard.”
“It’s more than just hard, it’s impossible.”
“Just relax.”
“But I _can’t_.”
“Deep breaths. In. Out.”
“But it doesn’t work. Nothing works.”
“It does. Right now you’re just looking at the stop sign in the road. You’re not figuring out _why _it’s there_.”_
_“_It’s already there for a reason, so why should _I_ have to figure it out?”
“Because people make mistakes. Everyone does. You, me. You need to see the bigger picture of it all. Don’t let the blind lead the blind.”
“It’s not a choice to be blind.”
“But it’s a choice to be the leader or follower.”
“I can’t lead.”
“That’s because your blind. You can’t see far enough to be the one to lead, no, you have to follow.”
“That’s what I’ve been doing.”
“You don’t understand, you have to follow with hope. With an idea. With knowledge. With faith. It’s not all about sight.”
“Then why does it matter if I’m blind?”
“Because you’re blind to everything. You don’t have any of the things you need to be a follower. You’re a weak, useless person. Once you realize that and _try_, maybe finally someone with sight can lead the rest.”
