Blindfolded for an hour- "Interesting".



As I putted on my bandage and sat down I immediately noticed one thing. I noticed how my brain started to work with my other senses, as I only could see the darkness. I started to feel the things I touched, much more powerful. I noticed how the fabric on the bed felt like with my fingertips, something I never noticed with the ability to see. It was wonderfully soft and a little cold caused by the wind from the open window. I could feel the breeze tickle my cheek. I do usually not feel the wind so detailed. All those details, as the sound outside my window. I could hear a vehicle and some small feet on the sidewalk. Could it be a child on a scooter? I was tempted to look. I didn't. Instead I stood up and raised my hands in front of me trying to work my way trough the hallway. I used the same senses; the sense of hearing and the sense of touch. It was scary. My feet couldn't take the certain steps as they were used to. I could feel the confusion with the cooperation between my brain and the rest of my body- really interesting. After an hour it was a relive to take the bandage off. For a while I was always thinking about the details that not only was awarded my sight. As I said, it was really interesting.
