I was reading Mark 10:46-52, about Blind Bartameus (sp?) receiving his sight, and I was thinking, "What was it that he saw immediately following this gift of sight?" And then I started thinking, what if it wasn't just a gift of physical sight, but that he could see beyond the normal realm of things...what a great, book, right?! I don't think it's the kind of story I could write too well, but this is how I pictured it starting. If anyone feels like picking up the thread, please add to it...
And on that day I received my sight - a wonderful and terrible gift I would now return without a second thought. For men who desire to know the minds of those who surround them do not know what they wish for.
The events following my newly granted sight are difficult and necessary to relate. God forgive us, we did not know what we did in those days. We were like the blind leading the blind, groping, stumbling, latching on to any word that sounded good to our ears and touting it as truth.
