Assignment 9

It irritated me how closed minded the man was. I liked that in the end it seemed like the blind man had opened his eyes. He understood that being blind had something special about it. It was like he could see the world in his own way. I think being blind for a day would be a very good learning experience. There are so many things that I tune out throughout the day. I always liked those games where someone will make a sound and you have to guess what made the sound. I almost never guess right. I also think it is so interesting that when one of your senses doesn't work, your other sense increase to fill the gap. The blind see more that me in certain ways. Because that man was blind, he needed to pay attention to the details he was given more. I take my sight for granted and don't often remember the way things look when trying to recall. The blind man has to learn things about something to be able to understand it, because of that they remember it better and sometimes understand it better.
