Faith & Savannah | Blind Beauty Issue 41
“It really is amazing that Sav and I became friends because I am guide dog user and Sav raises guide dog puppies that impact my life daily!! I can never thank her enough for her amazing work for GDB and the friendship she has given me. I am so grateful that we were put in each others lives!!” ~Faith Snapp
Friendship Is Beauty In Action
Today’s featured image made me smile because it is such a happy photo of two friends sharing a laugh. When I found out the story behind the photo it warmed my heart.
There’s something undeniably special about the bond of friendship. Friendships that evolve out of mutual respect for one another are extra special.
An image of two friends laughing while walking their dogs is so simple yet at the same time powerful. While I don’t particularly care for calling out blind people for doing ordinary things, Faith’s photo spoke to me. What it said was one word—joy!
Yes, Faith is blind and uses a guide dog. Savannah is not and raises guide dog puppies. A match made in heaven? Eh, could be. But in this singular period in time, these are just two friends sharing a joyful moment.
