Through your Eyes:



Close your eyes for a moment…and what do you see?. Nothing Right? You may just hear the faint sound of your breathing the sounds around you if you concentrate perhaps even your own heartbeat. Now imagine living like that for the rest of your life. Not being able to see the rise and set of the sun nor the beautiful blue of the sky. Unable to see the many colors of the flowers sprouting in the spring, the green pastures, trees, the beautiful birds singing their love songs. Even the beautiful rainbow that spreads itself across the sky after the rain. And sadder yet not being able to gaze upon the face of your loved ones. Now tell me would you miss all of these things? Or would you just accept it and move on with your life?



I'll tell you one thing it is not easy living in a world of darkness, well at first it wasn't easy I adjusted as time went on. And before we can go any further and to prevent confusion Yes I am blind. I haven't always been blind you know there was a time where I could see the world around me. They say Five is a little too young to remember much but I do because I lost my vision shortly after my fifth birthday. I can still remember the bright flowers of many colors I used to pick for my mother and the lush green grass I would sit on. The thing I recall the most and will always remember is the sun and its warm rays of light, I would look at it rising early in the morning and its setting when my day of play was done. But then the accident happened… I fell one day while I was playing and hit my head hard. The doctors didn't see it as a serious fall at first, just a normal bump on the head that any child gets when playing but they were wrong.



Soon after I began going to a special school for the blind where I was taught everything I now know to be able to navigate around my now dark world. Things were fine at first than after a few year my mother couldn't take it anymore and left me and my brother with my aunt, she abandoned us on the summer I tuned seven. From then on my brother was my sole protector he basically took on the role of both my parents when auntie wasn't around. I imagine it must have been hard for him he was only eleven a boy that young was supposed to be playing with other boy his age not caring for their blind sister. After my mother walked out on us I wasn't the same happy child I once was but I didn't show it.



I always put on my best smile for my brother I didn't want him to worry about me. If you are to ask anyone I know they will all tell you that I was always happy and smiling but that's a blatant lie. Inside I was depressed, a darkness deeper than the one I was already in always loomed over me. Would I ever be able to get out of this I wondered would I always be sad and lonely? At Seventeen  just when I was in my lowest point my in life I met him , George Harrison. He pulled me out of my darkness and filled me with his light. Just like the warm rays of the sun that I used to love as a child. He saved me in more ways than one and I hopelessly fell in love with him. I had never fallen in love before, after all who would love a blind girl?



Even though I knew he wouldn't return my feelings I was just happy being with him as friends. I didn't see him as George the Famous  guitarist of The Beatles, I just saw plain, funny, charming George. He told me he was immensely happy that he had met me not only because we could talk just about anything but because I didn't judge him and I would always be there for him no matter what. I had thought of him saving me, turns out we saved each other.  

Okay so while I've been working on TWST this lovely idea sprouts in my head a few weeks back(3)
I was just itching to write it
George is my second fav Beatle and he needs attention xDD
So what do you guys think? should I continue with this???

Rest assured i shall continuw with TWST and Straight from Heaven. I just want to know if this story is worth continuing
