Blind Leading the Blind

As I was driving home yesterday I saw a young woman taking awalk in her seasonal winter coat and sunglasses. I quickly noticed that she was carrying a walking cane, a trigger that she was blind. The woman was smiling, she may have even been laughing. It was almost as if she had a flirty look about her. My initial thought was that she had a psychological problem and was talking to herself, then I assumed that she was singing or talking on the phone. I then noticed that a man was walking with her, I was unable to see him until now and thought it was quite pleasant of him to take her for a walk. Finally, I observed that the man was also carrying about a stick and was wearing shades over his eyes. The man ran into a little dip and seemed to warn the woman that they were approaching a unexpected decline. They continued walking, smiling, talking. Oh how romantic it all looked.
