The Mute Speaker...

A short experience somewhere makes you feel blessed. How many times has it happened with you that when you wanted to say something, you just could not express yourself due to lack of words? At least you could speak! Think about the woman I met in the train today. She had the words and yet she was mute. She had so much to talk, but nobody could read her. She could understand what others had to say to her. May be she wasn't deaf or may be she understood the word by the lip movements. May be she wasn't like this before. May be! Though she was a bit different from the others, she tried to make her point come across. I say different because calling her incapable, disabled or abnormal will be an humiliation to her efforts to take her life as it is...

you're right. they're not disabled, just differently abled. they have a very sharp understanding of things that most of us with all 5 senses intact fail to develop.
good going!
peace

they are special...they sense the things differently so we fail to understand them
