Opus 2014-203: Ode to Old: Living in Glasses Houses

I am glad that I have worn glasses all my life.

I am not forced to hide my need for glasses.  I didn’t have a big issue when I switched to bifocals.

I watch other people as they are faced with age and limitations.  It can be an eighth grader at school or a mature professional.  They squint.  They get up close.  They have others read for them.  They fake it.  Anything but admit that they need corrective lenses.

Remember, if you are crippled, a crutch is a help not a shame.

So if you are one of those who can’t read the street signs or the board, get some glasses.  If you have them, get ‘em out and put ‘em on.

It doesn’t hurt, really, and you will be able to read what I have to say.
