Random thoughts
I was watching KBS world and just so happen there was sort of a documentary program about the touching life stories of various disabled people in Korea..When i watched that earlier on, it was showing a documentary of the life of Lee Soyeong..a korean lady who was born with defective cornea and been nearly blind her whole life that she has to wear magnifying glasses and yet still have a very weak vision..But thank god she was blessed with her talents in music, being able to learn piano playing and play by ear since the age of 3, and has been composing music since she was in elementary school..She relies on her mother to bring her around and be her eyesight and she has a 3rd stage mentally disabled sister..It was really sad to hear about her stories, especially the part where she was kicked by a man because she was blind and look abnormal compared to normal ppl..seriously, how could anyone be that mean to a disabled person? i don't get it at all..But sadly, after an eye checkup she found out that she's currently losing her only eyesight due to the progress of glaucoma that has already happened on her other eye some time ago..There are many more people out there who are unfortunate in life and it's really sad that they have to go through so much difficulties and sadness in their lives, while others are so blessed and tend to take things for granted..Cases like these are always shown in the newspapers, tv and everywhere..esp nowadays with all the poverty, starvation, war and calamities..And yet, people can still be so ignorant and selfish..
