I would take this question into two notions. First Concept is physical blindness- a disability.

I would have
to live in a dark world where the light was shut and all that I know was to feel everything around me. I
have two options then: to appreciate the world I am in, or to blame the world for the despair I am
suffering. But in this case, I would choose to appreciate because life has many more to offer other than a
sense of sight. I would still eat, walk, or do anything that I want. I may learn to walk with a walking stick
or a dog, or I may learn to memorize each step I take inside my home, and still live the way of life. If I
don’t appreciate life, I might lose my confidence to live and might not see beauty beyond the odds. I will
live as if I have sight, but I will live to see the beauty through the senses left for me. It is an irony where
living in blindsight and yet see how beautiful it is to live.

The second concept is the concept of the blindness of the heart. Living with it may be seemed to live in a
dark world- much darker than the world of a physically blind person. When living with it I see myself
carrying all burdens that I could not care less of everything around me. The lights were shut and the
doors were closed, sulking in misery. The only cure for this inability is to open the doors to let that light
in into the core of my being. In a matter of choice, we know how we would live. The disability to see
does not hinder me to continue to live the life I have, but the inability to appreciate everything around
me hinders me to see how beautiful this life could be. In the end, I would still choose to live appreciating
everything that I am, and only in that way, I could conclude that I have lived my life to the fullest.
