I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box and landing on my head. Now I am thirty-two. I can vaguely(模糊地)  1  the brightness of sunshine and what color red is. It would be wonderful to see things again,  2  a disaster can do strange things to people. It happened to me the other day that I might not have come to love  3  as I do if I hadn’t been blind. I believe in life now. I am not sure that I would believe in it so  4 . I don’t mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I  5  mean that the loss of  6  made me enjoy more of  7  I have now.

Life asks us to keep making  8  to reality. If a person is able to get ready for anything changeable his world will  9  more meaningful. I became blind, but I was  10 . My parents and my teachers saw  11  in me-a potential(潜力) to live, you might call it-which I didn’t see, and they make me fight it out with blindness.

The hardest  12  I had to learn was to believe in myself. That was what I had to do at least. If I hadn’t been able to do that, I would become a chair rocker for the  13  of my life. When I say I believe in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self-confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase  14 . That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: A belief that I could deal with anything alone; that somewhere in the  15  there is a special place where I can make myself fit.
