I witnessed a very rare sight today.
Sitting at the far deserted corner of the cafe , I saw the chemistry shared by two individuals , who are both deaf and mute. I saw how they communicated and shared stories with one another. Initially , I was worried how the staff would communicate with them and they might probably give the staff a hard time. To my surprise , it was rather them who gave the staff assurance. They patiently flipped the pages and pointed to the staff what they wanted. After that , they continued to communicate enthusiastically with sign language. That image is vividly seared in my mind. Their natural in capability did not became their limitations and it never hinder them to live normal lives like how normal people do. To me , I felt that that was highly respectable and remarkable . I believe you would be as amazed and impacted as I was if you had witnessed that scene . I was quietly observing their key of communication. They smiled and made kind gestures to express thoughts which could not be expressed by words. Then again , I pondered how does it feels to live a life like theirs. I imagined how helpless and curious I would be if I were brought to this world to be deprived of my fundamental abilities . I could not hear beautiful melodies and the sound of music . I could not speak , sing and even express myself like how others do. It feels scary and daunting . Hence , this makes the lives of theirs more encouraging to others.
And I learnt something today. :)
