Imagine yourself without sight. What would your reactions be to be left alone in a storm?

Explanation:

That's going to be a horrible sight. Haha, I can't see, right. Even if it's not in a storm, it's still horrible. I've tried walking while closing my eyes, and to be honest, I dread it. I think the longest I've done is gone 30 seconds, I had to open my eye. Even at that, it was on a flat land, and I had to walk slowly despite the fact that I knew there was nothing in my front, and it was an even landspace.

Now, all that being said, on a fairly good situation, I wasn't able to close my eyes for long. I simply can't imagine myself being left alone in the middle of a storm. That will be very very traumatic for me. It's draining me mentally imagining how helpless I will be, so it's a no for me.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
