Remember, in the land of the blind, the one eyed is King. I say, blind yourself, you will enjoy the rest of your senses, and find joy in music. Remember only you can blind yourself to knowledge. That's ok though...let's laugh. Let's laugh at the ignorant people that "don't know what they're talking about." Surely they know nothing. Laugh at everything, and I do mean everything. If it is funny, others will join with you. If it is not funny, others will think you are crazy and leave you alone. That makes it worth it. Never blind yourself to the humor of life, and always find a way to see the ridiculous in others, even those you don't agree with. Then, rather than stress over it, laugh. I met Pearl for lunch yesterday. As I pulled into the parking lot, I pulled forward to back into a parking spot, and this idiot pulled in behind me and took the spot. I laughed out loud, and drove a bit further and ended up parking next to a red Bentley convertible. Then as I walked in I laughed with the other driver, who walked in behind me, and kidded him. We talked and went back to look at the Bentley. When Pearl got there, the other driver was her friend Phill who she had invited to eat with us. It pays to laugh every chance you can get. Evan L.
