im sick. i hate my ochem gsi. and its always freakin cold.

this may sound odd, but i just wanna share it. so lately ive been noticing how bad my eyesight is. i always complain to myself that im going blind or what not. but its probably not even that bad...at least i can see right? so when i was walking back to my apartment the other day, there was this blind guy using his stick to guide himself. yea i saw him, but my dumbass ran past in front of him to catch the door to my building so i wouldnt have to use my key. when i looked back to say sorry, i see a scarred face with burns all over. afterwards i thought...damn, that was pretty rude of me. so i sat there waiting for the elevator feeling stupid and terrible. how selfish was that? so when the elevator finally came, i was looking down about to walk in, when i noticed another cane, and another blind guy who's face was just as scarred walked out of the elevator. what was going on? i felt even more stupid about my complaints about how bad my eyes are. i saw the incident as a reminder to myself....be thankful for who you are, what you have, and never take anything for granted...seriously...it's like that one saying, something about "i complained about the shoes i didnt have, until i met a man with no feet." i know thats probably wrong, but its something along those lines. it just makes you think, thats all.
