Relax a little... we all know that the situation for visually impaired is real
bad! We all are ourselves facing so many difficulties all the time. Remember
you still have some vision, so why may I ask are you so very upset? I know it

Above all we need to have a positive attitude towards ourselves and our
disability.
If we are blind, so what?
Unless, we have a right attitude, we can not really achieve much in life.

I have been reading mails from you since quite some time.
Would like to share one simplle example, me and my brother,both

We are enough motivated I guess.
We all have accepted blindness.
We all know what we can do and what we can’t.
We all know what is situation and why.

A positive attitude is needed not only for blind people, but everyone needs to
develop a prositive attitude! For whatever you think of, becomes your

Dear ones,
The fact that Ishita or me or anyone else highlights practicalities of
blindness does not mean we are demotivated or do not want to do anything about
the situation.
we are already doing many things, but let us accept the fact that situation on
the ground is far from satisfactory.
ishita,
I am sure you will share your number with preeti.
Regarding this discussion on passbook printing and account opening,
would not have been taking place if there were no optimistic people
(so many of them are here on the list itself), sitting in these bank
jobs prooving their potential.

Aditi, that was a truly motivating mail. That is the way to go. When we face a
problem, we have two option.
1. See the problem and bring our life to a stand still as if we are standing

2. Recognise the problem and look for solutions.

Yes after qualifying ourselves adequately and greatly, we might get an

Hey Ishita,
Just because you think a particular job profile might be inaccessible
or rather hard for a blind person does not imply that it will indeed
be the case. Last month, I happened to attend a STEM access conference
in Washington. Can you think of a blind civil engineer? Or, how about

Hi,
It's not about India or the US. it's about being able to do something
or not. While I agree that we in India are not that open to allow a

bring this change. Who would have thought that blind students will

Dear Ishita,
I have been selected by Reliance Industries Ltd. inspite of being completely
blind will be joining them within a fortnight. I am also aware of other
partially completely blind people working with the Reliance group in
Mumbai.
Regarding the salary earned by blind individuals
Being blind is not the problem it is the perception and the understanding
about blindness that is the problem. We need to work on the perceptions.
Perception issues apply both to sighted people as well as blind people.
It is perception that impacts the kind of education that we blind people
have
Silver Linings has placed great blind candidates with companies like
Microsoft and LPTI and other companies with salaries going into lacs!
So dont get disheartened dear we do have disadvantages because we are blind,
but that should only get us to explore our hidden potentials and achieve

Dear samir sir,
First of all congrats.
Well, I never wanted to say that no blind is working or can’t work in
private sector.
There may be few lucky people like you who got such handsome salary.
I also working with international call centre and was earning fine.
Though I have left that job myself.
I think it is high time issue of jobs for blind should be discussed
and dwelled upon in detail.
So thanks to Ishita for presenting this opportunity for serious
consideration for me at least.
As far as my reading of literature goes on the topic, it pains me to
the core. According to one RTI
I think the very fact we are all privilaged to be list members here, is good
enough to tell us that we are the ones who need to take the responsibility
