which is it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
"Once I rose above the noise and confusion!. Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion!. I was soaring ever higher!. But I flew too high!.

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man!. Though my mind could think I still was a mad man!.
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming!. I could hear them say!.

Carry on my wayward son!. There'll be peace when you are done!. Lay your weary head to rest!. Don't you cry no more!.

Masquerading as a man with a reason!. My charade is the event of the season!. And if I claim to be a wise man, well, it surely means that I don't know!.

On a stormy sea of moving emotion!.
Tossed about like a ship on the ocean!. I set a course for winds of fortune!. But I hear the voices say!.

Carry on my wayward son!. There'll be peace when you are done!. Lay your weary head to rest!. Don't you cry no more!. NO!!!

Carry on, you will always remember!.
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor!. Now your life's no longer empty!. Surely heaven waits for you!"

(lyrics are the best I can offer at this moment)!.
Love!.

i think it would be better born blind because you would not have seen what it is that you might have seen if you could see!. my mothers friend knows a girl who was born blind, and my moms friend asked her if she wishes she could she, she said that she was happy the way she is because its made her would she is and she wouldn't have had the same life at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think I can apply the ever wise cliche of

It is better to have love and lost than to have never have loved at all!.

At least if you lose sight you have something to think back too the color and what things looked like, so you can have an understanding of the worldWww@QuestionHome@Com

it can go vice a versa would u rather have seen n lost or not seen at all its a tough question if u loose sight it could take u forever to get use to it if u r born blind u grew up learning to use ur other sences n never rely on sight i guess its better to be born blind then to loose itWww@QuestionHome@Com

i think it'd be better to lose sight because then at least you have the memories of colors and faces and such

You did not mention the third option, thus making the question irrelevant!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

EDIT: Not at all!. Being born blind myself it took many years of practice to be blind to this not being able to see!. ; )Www@QuestionHome@Com

It is better to experience both, if you want to look at life from all sides!.
