Hello to all blind teens. I am a seeing teenager, and just want to say this to all ya out there...I think it is special that you guys cannot see. Because you see what seeing people cant see. You see hearts. A lot of seeing teens have a trouble with comparing with looks, competing with other guys\girls, and most of all. And in the midst of us doing that, we just see the surface [skin deep] while we need to see the heart! I would love to meet some blind 'online' teen friends, and get to understand more the life of not seeing. I think you all are privileged, just because blind people are so special! I hope none of you get offended. I am homeschooled and love to meet new people. anyone want to just talk? [:
