good things come in small packages.

what if one day, you open your eyes in the morning and realise that everything is in a pitch of darkness.

and when you rub your eyes,
you still cant see a thing.

the ever so colourful world you always see,
just turned into a total darkness.

was just thinking about this while walking home.

it's really cruel.

you got to see how beautiful the world is.
but the next moment,
you cant.

just like that.
with a snap of the fingers.

you cant see anything.

just imagine.

seriously,
would you rather be born blind?

or,
be able to see the world for a few years and then go blind?

i would rather not choose.

being blind when born means you cant see anything single thing.
you'll never know how you look like.
you'll never know how this wonderful world look like.
you'll never get to see anything.
with the beautiful colours and all.

being able to see for years but go blind after that is not any better.
yes,
you get to see how you look like.
you get to see how this world look like.
you get to see all the wonderful colours and all.

but imagine,
being able to see such beautiful things.
and yet, the next moment, you cant see a single thing at all.

it's like taking something thats sooo precious away from you just IMMEDIATELY.
without any warnings.
not at all.

it's scary.
being able to see the colourful world.
and the next moment you blink,
you open your eyes and what you see is just total darkness and nothing else.

it's scary.
really scary.

my mum was having problems with her eyesight.
days ago, she just went to a normal clinic and the doc said that if her eyesight worsened,
she might just go blind one day.

when she told me this,
i was in a total lost and was just so afraid.

during the past few days,
she kept saying,
"what if i go blind one day?"

i just assured her that nothing would happen.
but deep inside,
i doubted myself.

like any other child,
i want her to watch me grow into an adult, get married and loads of other stuffs.

and yes,
miracles do happen.

mum went to some eye specialist to have an x-ray on her eyes.
according to her,
she said the doc used lotsa machines to check her eyes.

they confirmed that it wasnt anything.
and she WONT go blind.
she prolly just strained her eyes or something.
but nothing related to going blind.

and that previous kuku-fied doc totally kept me worrying.
if not for the x-ray that my mum decided to do to double confirm,
my mum would still be telling me,
"what if i go blind tml?"

HUGE mistake that the doc made.

so a point to not here.
when you're REALLY terribly sick.
see 2 different docs.
just IN CASE one of the doc made a mistake.

but of cos,
the best way to prevent all these from happening is,
dont get sick!!

so anyways,
i thought through what happened and was just wondering.

if weren't for this,
i wouldnt have realise how thankful i ought to be for being able to see.

if weren't for this,
i wouldnt have realise how much i should actually cherish the ppl around me.

it's prolly a blessing in disguise.

but thank god nth happened.
or it'll be really a terrible lesson learnt.

so to all,
please take good care of your eyes and of cos your health!!!
