How different our own life is! Sight shows us the ground beneath our feet and the heavens above us-the sun, moon, and stars, shooting stars, lighting and the sunset. It shows us day and night. We are able to hear voices, the sound of the sea, and music. We feel, we taste, we smell. How fortunate we are!
