What are you talking about?  You should have told him this privately so inquiring minds like mine won't ask you nothing.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

With the sheer amount of talent we have in the state, this could most definitely be a great addition to the convention. Last year, we did a virtual choir, and this years performance spotlight could come in the form of a talent show.
