Places And Faces Gentle Hand Love
1,026 words
I knew early on that my life was not to follow the
gentle streams and brooks of my choosing, yet was
to go raging down the rivers of its own. I did not
realize however, there was always to be a clearing
in the turbulent waters, a hand extended to pull
me out. Always reaching out, again and again I
would grasp that same gentle hand that had pulled
me up many a time before. I quickly came to see
that there was always an avenue of escape, a
crutch to lean on; time and time again that
mothers love w...

Blindness creates a world of obscurity only to be
overcome with guidance from someone willing to
become intimate with the blind. Equally true, the
perceptions of blindness can only be overcome when
the blind allow intimacy with the sighted. Raymond
Carver, with his short story Cathedral,
illustrates this point through the eyes of a man
who will be spending an evening with a blind man,
Robert, for the first time. Not only does this man
not know Robert, but his being blind, bothered
