Good early afternoon, she who is beautiful-in-her blindness, Robin,
As I am seeing it, spontaneously bumping into someone with your
stick or even your body seems like something that comes with the
territory of blindness and is not meant to be "changed" or "eliminated."
" I can assure you that those into whom you bodily collide probably
won't think anything of blind chicks bumping into them. Perhaps,
then, you might let that anxiety go, for actually, it has no purpose,
other than to cause your feeling abominable within your very skin,
like blind people themselves might be the lowliest critters ever for
actualizing ohmagod, blindness BEHAVIORS?
