How to See with Blindness

 “BabyGirl, do you remember the day we met?” her Daddy asked softly.

Smiling, she recalled it fondly.

“Yes, Daddy.  What I can’t remember is each day before that one,” the BabyGirl replied.

“When I first saw you, there was a glow you had to you,” her Daddy said.  “And I could tell that it was a glow not only on your outside, but on your inside.  Do you know what that told me?”

“That I could outshine the sun?” she asked, repeating some of the sentiments he had said to her in the past.  “That I was renewed by my own love?  That I was mighty like a rose?  That I could find my own GPS inside me?”

“No.  Those are things I learned about you along the way,” her Daddy replied.  “When I saw you glowing, inside and out, that told me you were someone I needed to get to know.”

“Daddy?” she asked timidly.

“Yes, BabyGirl?” he asked back.

“Thank you for taking the time to see what I couldn’t see about myself and how to use your heart to look through someone’s flaws,” she replied.  “Thank you for showing me how to see with blindness.”
