"I have considered many things, including the fact that many beings who are spiritually very evolved have impaired vision." I found this quote from Martin in a post about Sinus. It is reassuring to see there are some plus points to being short sighted, now I would like to have clear vision and remain spiritually evolved. Why do I keep assuming I will lose all my good qualities when I regain my eyesight? A lot of these issues are coming up this last few days, do I just acknowledge them or do I need to do further work on them? Afterthought: we may end up a lot more spiritually evolved after putting into practice the techniques described in Martin's books.

I think it has to do with why a person becomes visually impaired in the first place. I've been - to use Martin's wonderful phrase - working with the idea that I indeed keep the good qualities ~ the qualities I FOUGHT to keep while growing up which resulted in my becoming near-sighted in the first place, the qualities that I felt were being threatened (one of which was my spiritual evolvedness) ~ I will keep them and free myself of the physical problems this caused because they no longer serve me. Now that I have proved to myself that I AM going to be true to who I am, regardless of 'outside pressure' (people who just couldn't deal with who I was, because they couldn't conveniently put me in a 'little box'), I don't have to feel threatened any more, and so I still can be who I always was, without the vision problem and without all the other defenses. It's a return to purity and clarity, with all the fear being replaced by Love. It's a better version of myself ~ more relaxed, happier, and filled with more energy, even (which I wouldn't have thought possible!).
I wrote a Haiku that I believe fits this subject (this one and many, many more are at my original website, the one I did before I launched Cardazoid, which is called Rogueunderground.org):
I was a wild child Now I'm wise but still a child. . . I am a wise child.
It's sort of like returning to who I was as a child, with my integrity intact, BEFORE I felt that I had to start defending and protecting. I feel I'm doing this more and more every day, and the vision will keep improving too, I believe. It's like a huge burden being lifted, in every possible way.

Clarity is clarity - and that's always a step up from non-clarity.
