Touche'D
The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the attractive young woman with the white cane made her way carefully up the steps.
She paid the driver and, using her hands to feel the location of the seats,walked down the aisle and found the seat he'd told her was empty.
Then she settled in, placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg. It had been a year since Susan, 34, became blind. Due to a medical misdiagnosis she had been rendered sightless, and she was suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, fustration and self-pity. And all she had to cling to was her husband, Mark. Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart.
When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and was determined to help his wife gain the strength and confidence she needed to become independent again.Finally, Susan felt
ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but was now too
frightened to get around the city by herself.
Mark volunteered to drive her to work each day, eventhough they worked at opposite ends of the city. At first, this comforted Susan, and fulfilled Mark's need to protect his sightless wife who was so insecure about performing the slightest task.
Soon, however, Mark realized the arrangement wasn't working. Susan is going to have to start taking the bus again, he admitted to himself.
But she was still so fragile, so angry - how would she react? Just as he predicted, Susan was horrified at the idea of taking the bus again.
"I'm blind!", she responded bitterly. "How am I
supposed to know where I am going? I feel like you're abandoning me."
Mark's heart broke to hear these words, but he knew what had to be done. He promised Susan that each morning and evening he would ride the bus with her, for as long as it took, until she got
the hang of it. And that is exactly what happpened. For two solid weeks, Mark, military uniform and all, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to
determine where she was and how to adapt to her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus
drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat. Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own.
Monday morning arrived, and before she left, she
threw her arms around Mark, her temporary bus-riding companion, her husband, and her best
friend. Her eyes filled with tears of gratitude for his loyalty, his patience, and his love. She said good-bye, and for the first time, they went their separate ways.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went perfectly, and Susan had never felt better. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself.
On one Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was paying the fare to exit the bus, the driver said,"Boy, I sure do envy you." Susan wasn't sure if the driver was speaking to her or not. After all,who on earth would ever envy a blind woman who had struggled just to find the courage to live for the past year? Curious, she asked the driver,
"Why do you say that you envy me?" The driver responded, "It must feel good to be taken care
of and protected like you are."
Susan had no idea what the driver was talking about, and again asked, "What do you mean?"
The driver answered, "You know, every morning for the past month, a fine-looking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you as you get off the bus. He
makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches until you enter your office building.
Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a little salute and walks away. You are one lucky lady."
Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks.
For although she couldn't physically see him, she had always felt Mark's presence. She was lucky, so lucky, for he had given her a gift more powerful than sight, a gift she didn't need to see to believe - the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.

Its been quite a while since i've blogged. Just like Ville Valo(Yes im still at it). Blessings to you darlings out there ^_^ who perhaps once in awhile visit here.
Yes, I dont really feel like blogging back then. But now i did, No no no it is'nt the inspiration. I'll just call it the mood.
Well im fine now! So lets just start out by talking about the competition of GXL so far.
The first round of GXL for team [N](Russyboh, Clement, Wen bin, Ehren, Rikki, Shawn[sub]).
We won one and lost one. Its kinda disheartening, I dont have any idea why i played this badly. I did'nt play to my fullest potential. Especially today's match, I had vanguard till level 19? Hey no kid man, But thats F-up. Hahahahaha, Well im sure i'll play better. Its alright, i must be optimist.
But i just can't believe we lost to some random team Eg. TEAM STFU(Sio the floor united -_-).
Oh , and i got a job too. At Jurong Point's Pizza Hut. So if anyone wants some bad service you could always come here. Im ready hahahaha.
And, What's it with some of the people here. Their genre of dressing is so matured, Alright not that it makes me feel lousy(It does) but it just doesen't seemed right. A good choice of people at my age who are able, or suitable to dress maturely. ME. jk.
Im selected for as the emcee for the prom night, it seems to me that from now. Im gonna be really busy eh? Well quite the lot.
There's something i dont know about me recently, i've been feeling extremely vexed. And my fuse is extremely short -_-. LOL, Alright nvm. And i really wanna slim down, why? I wanna slim down not because i wanna look good. But i slim down was because i wanna be like Ville Valo LOL -_-
