This story brings out an old sayin ” dont judge a book by its cover.” And that is the definition of this story In my opinion at least. When his wife tells him that the blind man she has been obsessed with is stayin for a couple of days he dreads the bare thought of it. To him all blind people are how do you put it nicely “slow”. And he starts off this close minded and through out the story you see him change as a person which is life changing. This would not have been0 possible in the story if it werent for his wife falling asleep on the two of them. This is such a key development in the story, because now that they have only each other to talk to he starts to open up to him and now that they had smoked a little bit of some reefer and had a couple drinks I think he was seeing how they can do the same things that any person can and they can think only bigger. They start to converse more deeply and its then that he closes his eyes and sees that it is a differnt world in another persons shoes.
