Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar, If I did there would be far to much Taang and everyone would hate me!

So Yeah, I'm really sorry I haven't updated in forever, and I own't be able to in a while. Three weeks at least. I am going to be at Youth Conference (Mormon thing), then Florida for a week, then Oakcrest (Mormon Utah thing). So don't kill me please. And keep in mind with this that my C key is messed up so there will probably be a lot of typos but I will try to keep it to a minimum. But as you all know, I'm bad with grammer and everything anyways, so it might not matter much. Sorry.

Toph sat in the middle of the clearing, staring blankly at the night sky. Aang walked over to her and sat down, turning his silver eyes to the stars.

"Hey Toph?" Aang kept his eyes solidly on the inky sky, trying his hardest not to look at the beautiful girl next to him.

"Yeah Twinkle Toes?" Toph layed back, her back supported by a rock that looked as though she had bent it so she could lie in a comfortable position, and put her arms behind her head.

"What's it like to be blind?" Aang finally tore his eyes from the sky to stare at the blind girl, a confused expression on his face.

"I don't know," Toph said as she turned her face to stare blindly at the Avatar with eery fogged eyes.

"What do you mean you don't know? You've been blind your entire life. You have to know." Aang was completely lost as to why the girl was playing dumb.

"No, I don't have to know. I've been blind my entire life so how can I have anything to compare it too?"

"I still don't understand." Aang tilted his head to the side, trying to follow Toph's train of thought.

"I have never seen anything. So how can I know what it's like to be blind? I don't know if what I see is black, yellow, purple, blue or even white. I've never seen those colors. So I can't say being blind is like being in a pitch black room with a blind fold on. Because I don't know if that's true. And even if I did, it still probably wouldn't be the same." Toph turned her blind gaze back to the sky.

"You don't know if it wouldn't be the same."

"I'm pretty sure it would be different. Even when you stand in a dark room with a blind fold you can still see the darkness. You can still feel it press against your eyes. I can't. I really don't know if what I see is black or not. So why don't you describe what it's like to have sight. Try describing that to a person who has never seen anything and then you will know what it's like for me to try to describe what it's like to be blind."

"Well, seeing is just the opposite of what you do. You see trees, and colors, and light, and, well, everything." Aang shrugged as he struggled to think of what would work. He thought that worked.

"Not good enough Aang. I still don't know what it's like for you. For me, being blind is just living. It's all I've ever known. Just like for you, seeing is all you have ever known. Being blind is just my life, and that's the only way I can even begin to imagine describing it to you."

Aang stared at the girl. She was really just like every one else. Being blind didn't make her some odd creature with a different way of life, completely different from ever other person. She was just like everone else. Living life the same way as ever other person on the planet. Just working with what she was given and making it work. So really being blind was just like having sight.

At least, it was to Toph.

Wow… That didn't work at ALL! This has been running through my head for over a year I think. It always workes great in my head, but I can never get it on the computer. That SUCKS! O well. Tell me just how bad you think it is, or if you actually do like it, do tell! In other words Process and Reply, You will get a cookie the size of… What ever the heck you want! And you get the wonderful satisfaction of making it yourself! And for all of you who have been reading NOJY, Meng lovers, I'm really sorry, But that popped into my head, and I just went with it. So I don't have anything against Meng but I just had to do that. So yeah I really got to go. Have fun guys!
