One day I visited an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting．I was expecting a quiet 1 of the splendid artwork．

A young 2 viewing the paintings ahead of me 3 nonstop between themselves．I watched them a moment and decided the lady was doing all the talking．I admired the man’s 4 for putting up with her 5 stream of words．6 by their noise, I moved on．

I met them several times as I moved 7 the various rooms of art．Each time I heard her continuous flow of words, I moved away 8．

I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a 9 when the couple approached the 10．Before they left, the man 11 into his pocket and pulled out a white object．He 12 it into a long stick and then 13 his way into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket．

“He’s a 14 man,”the clerk at the counter said．“Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age．During his recovery, he made a promise his life wouldn’t change．So, as before, he and his wife come in 15 there is a new art show．”

“But what does he get out of the art?”I asked．“He can’t see．”

“Can’t see!You’re 16．He sees a lot．More than you and I do,”the clerk said．“His wife 17 each painting so he can see it in his head．”

I learned something about patience, 18 and love that day．I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without 19 and the courage of a husband who would not 20 blindness to change his life．And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away, their arms intertwined．
