At 7, I wanted to be captain of a clipper ship. Later that same year they discovered I was blind as a bat, almost. My near blindness had left me very shy and with little self confidence. Add to that the teasing for my Coke bottle glasses, my increased insecurity and the lack of clipper ships, I became the dork I am today.
Sometimes I hope for reincarnation. Other times, things could have been much worse. End result, not too bad, really. 🤓🤓🤓
