Black is a colour, which does not allow the person to see other colour.
Just imagine a situation when your eyes are open and you just see black in colour.
You will be watching TV or doing something and suddenly power goes off leaving you in pitch dark. Would you like to remain in that situation or light a candle. Nowadays we cannot even think of staying in dark and hence have installed UPS at home just to avoid black colour.
We cannot imagine our life in darkness, but few people are born to live in dark, just to see black!
This morning, I started my drive to office in the regular route. Seeing the jam packed road, I took an other route and was trying to cross the road. I found a blind man, may be in his twenties crossing the road. I got down from my bike and helped him crossed the road unaware that I have stopped my vehicle in the middle of the road.
While making him cross the road, I asked him where he wants to go. He told MORE, and since it was near by I left him in front of MORE building and said in a regular tone " See you are in front of MORE now and I will make a move"
I came running to move my vehicle as it was in the middle of the road. Luckily nobody scolded me for that instance.
While moving my vehicle, suddenly I felt ashamed of myself for leaving the person on the road and saying him "see here comes the MORE". How can a blind man see the MORE building when he can't see anything other than black. I parked my bike on the road side and went in search of him in guilt.
I found him moving further from the MORE building. I ran to him and asked him again where he wants to go. He said that he is in search of a garment factory near to MORE.
He was walking so confidently with a stick in his hand that too in an unknown road. He told me that he can take care of him, but he got himself hit by a parked truck. I got hold of his shoulder and went in search of a garment factory. I wanted to apologize to him for the sentence which I told him after leaving him at MORE, but didn't had courage to do. Finally with somebody's help I got the garment factory and left him with the security person.
I have helped the blind people even before this instance, but never felt hurt like this!
Right after this instances, my mind is thinking too much in the offline.
The person who is born to live in dark will be surrounded with questions starting with How.
How the person looks like with whom he talk?
How his parents are?
How the nature is?
How is the food that he eat?
It is now the end of the day, I am filled with so many questions, which does not have answers.
Who has helped him to reach bustop?
whether he reached home or not?
Is he coming tomorrow also, If yes then who will help him.
I am sure after few days, I will forget this instance and the blind man will forget me as he will be receiving help from one or the other. But this instance will always make me feel lucky to have born with sight to see the light.

Well, this is bit emotional one... but usually people say that visually impaired ones have more IQ and six sense than normal ones..you would have also written a line about donating our eyes after death.. may be then we can find answers...but ya helping him, parking your vehicle in mid of the road these stuffs inspires others to help them MORE..
