The blind man's work opened our eyes, and 12 our hearts, which also made his life 13. It was just like Beethoven, who became deaf in his later life and wrote many great musical works. Beethoven himself couldn't 14 his wonderful music, but his music has 15 millions of people to face their difficulties bravely. Isn't it one kind of happiness?
