Stepping up on Courtney's soapbox!  I agree!!!!  My philosophy is "How" can we make it happen!!!  If you don't know an alternative, maybe someone else does.  I for one am not blind, but have numerous times put on sleep shades to figure out how a blind person would accomplish a certain task.  

Be nice to each other!  We are all here to learn!!!

On a different note.….… I agree with Greg on some of his points. Some times I get so frustrated with some of the discouraging messages here. We need to remember that we are at different stages in our blindness & at different levels in our crafting. What works for one may not work for another.  Some instructors may explain a technique better than another. It bothers me when someone says, "I would NEVER tell a blind person about.….… because it never works for me." Most of the time there is a way to get things accomplished.
We face enough discouragement in our lives without getting it from other blind individuals.

Rant over for now. I am stepping down from my soapbox now.

Courtney
