Through my blindness I find that my idea of reality is changed. I don't have quite as many pre-conceived notions about the world. Instead of taking the world at a glance and making a swift judgment I must wait, listen, touch( if I can) and carefully evaluate my surroundings. For instance if I hear running water I cannot automatically assume there is actual water near me. I must wait. See if anyone else notices water. Check for the smell of water. Or notice water by touch. Otherwise the sound of water could just be a recording of running water. I never really noticed how the loss of one sense drastically alters whether I am neutral, passive, or active in my judgement calls.
