I just impatiently pointed out directions to a blind woman. How’s your morning so far?

No I obviously could not tell she was blind 😔

Reminded me of my college roommate, who was totally blind.

"I was waiting for the walk bell when an old lady asked if I'd help her cross the street, because she didn't see too well. I didn't tell her I didn't see too well either and walked her across."

@Mamapolo2016 hahah I love that
@LAlexV She was something. Don't fret over your encounter. Blind people know they're blind and they know sighted people sometimes are too.

Another time I was with D. in a department store, browsing, when she stepped on a freshly washed and wet floor. The irritable mopper said, "Can't you see the floor is wet? waddaya, blind?" She looked at D., saw she WAS blind and went pale. She trailed after D., apologizing. D. got annoyed. "Lady, it's OK. I already knew I was blind."
