When Christopher Columbus set sail in 1492 from Spain, his destination was not America. In fact,
he did not even know that the huge American continents existed. His purpose in sailing west was to
reach the Indies faster than other ships which used a route around Africa. The Indies were a source
of riches for Europeans during those days. The treasures of spices, silks, etc. were greatly valued
by Europeans but were extremely difficult to obtain. When Columbus reached the islands that are
now known as the West Indies, he believed he had reached Asia and he called the people living
there ‘Indians’.

Mary was blind at birth. Doctors during those years had been unable to do anything to correct the
situation and although her parents lived in anguish, not being able to see was normal for her. After
years of training to live in a dark world, Mary got a job and moved into her own flat. Several years
later the doctors she occasionally visited for check-ups told her that a new technique had been found.
This technique could restore her sight. One would think that Mary would have jumped at the
possibility to see, but actually she was not at all happy about this situation. She had never seen
anything before. She had established a life for herself in a world without sight and the thought of
changing this lifestyle was frightening. She was more frightened of seeing than of not.
