While switching on the pc tonight, the lights suddenly went off. There was a blackout! It felt as if my sight was stolen away for a moment. I could hear palpitations from my chest. Then, I smelt something was burning. I was worried! There was noise here and there. The chillness slowly creeping under my skin and along my spine. I sensed there was something not right. 
Slowly I got my way to the main power box and switched the power on again. For once, I was really afraid of losing my eye sight! In fact, I always thought that eyes are the most important asset for everyone. Eyes let you see the joy that this world can offer. Eyes let you see the colours of the rainbow and beautiful nature that surround us. Previously, I was a volunteer for the MAB, an association for the blind. It disturbs me that some people do not have the opportunity to read as reading is a source for knowledge. And to read, these blind people need a special medium called braille, a type of printed writing read by feeling it with your fingers. So, it's important to have many reading resources/materials converted to braille so that these people can learn things that we are learning.
Anyways, eyes to me are important. I can't imagine living in the dark. Though recently I have some problems with my eyes, I still keep my fingers crossed so that my eye sight will last forever as it may be. I'd like to write a poem about eyes and appreciation of being blessed with proper vision. Nonetheless, I am too tired this time to think of one.
Perhaps, if anyone would like to contribute one, kindly do so by posting it in this comment box. Then, I shall have it written on my next entry.
Until then..keep eyeing on this blog ;o)
