Confidence - when all is dark.....

Wow - I've just returned from Morocco where I was a sighted guide assisting a group of Visually Impaired travellers. How's this for courage & confidence - you travel to a foreign country, with a group of people you have never met, to go walking in the High Atlas Mountains - and you can't see a thing!

My fellow travellers were so inspirational.

As one lady commented, "one day the lights just went out, that was 15 years ago, you just have to learn to get on with things."

How many things do we stop ourselves from getting on with - all because it might not work out the way we dream? Stop dreaming & start doing was the message I received, loud & clear!
