Day 28: Eyesight

Hi again
Today I have been thinking lots about what I should write about and how there are some blessings I am thankful for today that I have already wrote about and can't write about today. Yet I am still thankful for those blessings such as heat. So I need to think of something else that I haven't wrote about yet and I thought about my eyesight. Today it snowed a few inches and it will be snow that is not going to be leaving any time soon and while it can be a pain (it causes bad roads), it can also be pretty. I find it beautiful to look outside after a fresh snowfall and everything is white and undisturbed by people's foot prints, vehicle's tire tracks, pets or wildlife. There is just something somewhat magical about it. I would not be able to experience this without my eyesight. Nor would I be able to experience the amazing sunsets or beautiful rainbows after a storm or cute little adorable kittens. I would miss out on so much. I can't imagine not having my eyesight and missing out on so many beautiful sights. I also understand though how if I never had it, it may not feel like such a loss because I have no sense of smell and never have and while I know I am missing out on something-I don't really know because I have never experienced it. I think it may be worse to know what you are missing. Yet I am not sure. Anyways I am so grateful for my eyesight because I get to see so many beautiful things and can't imagine living without it. But I suppose if it was the other way around like it is for my sense of smell, I would not be able to imagine life with it. Aside from that-there is so much beauty around us and I am grateful to be able to see it and experience it and that is why I am thankful for eyesight!
