One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting.I was looking forward to a quiet
36 of the splendid artwork.
A young
37 viewing the paintings ahead of me
38 nonstop between themselves.I watched them a moment and decided the lady was doing all the talking.I admired the man's
39 for putting up with her
40 stream of words.
41 by their noise, I moved on.
I met them several times as I moved
42 the various rooms of art.Each time I heard her continuous flow of words, I moved away
43 .
I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a
44 when the couple approached the
45 .Before they left, the man
46 into his pocket and pulled out a white object.He
47 it into a long stick and then
48 his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket.
"He's a
49 man, " the clerk at the counter said." Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age.During his recovery, he made a promise his life wouldn't change.So, as before, he and his wife come in
50 there is a new art show."
"But what does he get out of the art?" I asked."He can't see."
"Can't see! You're
51 .He sees a lot.More than you and I do," the clerk said."His wife
52 each painting so he can see it in his head."
I learned something about patience,
53 and love that day.I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without
54 and the courage of a'' husband who would not
55 blindness to change his life.And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away, their arms intertwined.
