[Blindtlk] People How Asking How one Became Blind

[Jasmine Kotsay]

I love answering questions about my blindness.  That's part of 
what makes me want to be a teacher.  I want people to feel that 
it's okay to ask me questions, even about my blindness.  Unless 
someone is rude when they ask, I love answering any questions 
about blindness, about anything, really.

Subject: [Blindtlk] People How Asking How one Became Blind

Hi, I often people ask what is a personal question when they 
don't
know one very well.  Why do they feel justified in doing so?

I have no difficulty in discussing the subject but don't always 
think
it appropriate in the particular context.

this email was prompted by a girl who remarked that she had 
wondered
about this all the time she knew me.

I think she's a bit wierd anyway - it just got me thinking, as 
I'm
currently stuck on a train sitting beside this girl, struggling 
to
make conversation, which I'm finding particularly difficult - she
really is an annoying individual.
