No, not KKK / Ku Klux Klan. Not blind. Only a blindfolded horse – to calm down the soul. Some days ago I thought, I maybe could get blind, because there are always lightnings in my left eye. I grabbed my guitar and decided to retire with music – following Ray Charles, Steve Wonder and so many blind guitarists who found a solution vs. the loss of eye-functions. Then I nevertheless went to a doctor, he examined with many machines – and now I know, I’ll be not blind soon. I can continue to write and read … [diagnosis: "Glaskörperabhebung" = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floater]

hallo friends,
my daughter has opened a youtube channel

Great news!
hi Barb,
I like your little story and the moral:
“Never argue with a woman who reads.
It’s likely she can also think.
At least now she has all the equipment . . .”
A huge relief! I am glad for you,
I’m always anxious to become blind,
because I enjoy to see so much;
to have a second leg
I learned to play guitar …
hallo friends,
if can’t play anymore:

„Lasst sie, sie sind blinde Blindenführer.
Wenn aber ein Blinder den anderen führt,
so fallen sie beide in die Grube.“
I’m very very glad to hear that Frizz! …and very well performed song!
Frightening moment turning itself around to good news. So enjoy your guitar planning. Between you and George-b I am adding to my likes in music. Photography, music, wisdom, what’s next.
Thank you…
Ah, the music is so very soothing; thanks so much, and I am glad that you’ve eliminated the doubt/dread and can be grateful for your vision and your many talents!

So glad your eyes are fine Frizz. I too have lots of floaters and tears in my retina that need periodic attention. Blogging can’t be helping much
Love your music!
dear Madhu,
my eyes are not fine – but I can continue to blog (and write my little blurb books) – and of course I could play guitar, even blind…
blind? schrecklich
aber hast du gedacht wie viele Menschen, die völlig selbst blind sind?
recently in Brussels I made music together with a blind clarinet player – he was a wonderful human being!
beautifull

As I site possessor I believe the content material here is rattling great , appreciate it for your efforts. You should keep it up forever! Best of luck.
I’m so happy to hear your sight will be okay, Frizz…
I know you are an unbelievably talented musician, but it would be such an absolute shame if you weren’t able to practice your gifts in photography and painting as well!!!
That’s good news. I’m glad that you are Ok.
Kind greetings,
Marianne
Hooray for your vision and for your choice of guitar music from Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder! Play on, Guitar Man!

That is relieving news. Music is very healing and therapeutic. Glad you retired to music.

a flickr video – is it possible for you to watch??
Yes, I just watched it. Fabulous! Thank you for the link. The talent is impressive – the instrument sees no blindness – the talent is “blind to his blindness,” and that is one of the things that makes great music, in my opinion.
