Feeling Your Way Through Life

Reviewed by

David is happily married with a son and two daughters, and has a wonderful career. He is a nationally known speaker, a best selling author and a world champion athlete. As you read this you’ll probably think life has been good to David. And yes, I would agree with that, however, it is one that has not been without challenges.

An Issue
You see at a very young age, David’s parents suspected that he had a vision problem. After consultation with his doctors, they discovered that David was born with a rare eye disorder, and that this disorder would first cause night blindness, then the loss of peripheral vision, and finally blindness.

David’s Attitude
To quote David, “There is always something you can do about any problem; even it if is just changing your perspective on how you feel about the problem.” David could have wallowed in self-pity, or he could have used his blindness as a crutch. David and his family, however, had a positive perspective on his problem that allowed him to face and overcome not only his challenge of blindness, but also the challenges of life which we all face at one time or another.

David faced and overcame challenges that most of us never have to face. “I was told that blindness would beat me or that I would beat it-the choice was mine. Now, some twenty-six years later, I realize that everyone has problems and crosses to bear,” says David. In his book, “Feeling Your Way Through Life”, David writes about his experiences. As you read the book you will see through David’s eyes, insights and possibilities that you can apply in your own life.
