[Blindtlk] why is it important to join an organization of the blind?

[Sheila Leigland]

Hello all, I've heard about doses of reality. If I and my husband had bought in to this kind of logic, we never would have gone to college, gotten married, raised our son, and worked. If I had listened to the advice of everyone we wouldn't have taken ourselves and our son to the nfb convention in 1996 from Montana by train and went to disneyland without sighted assistance our son was eight at the time so although he could see we were very much in control of the situation. Dreams and goals can be crushed by to much so called reality. It doesn't mean that we don't try to plan out things but we aren't afraid to try.
