Journal Entry

Page 191 Paragraph 10-11
Quote:
"'I can't see,' I said. A cheery voice spoke out of the dark. 'There are lots of blind people in the world. You'll marry a nice blind man someday.'"

The people are always focusing on people getting married. There is a life outside of marriage I hope they know. The people think Esther is concerned about herself not seeing because is will effect who she will marry, so the people tell her it will be okay. Really Esther is worried about her sight because she won't be able to see the beautiful world and what it looks like.
