“Stories come alive in the telling. Without a human voice to read them aloud, or a pair of wide eyes following them by flashlight beneath a blanket, they had no existence in our world. They were like seeds in the beak of a bird, waiting to fall to earth. Or the notes of a song laid out on a sheet, yearning for an instrument to bring their music into being. They lay dormant, hoping for the chance to emerge. Once someone started to read them, they could begin to change. They could take root in the imagination and transform the reader. Stories wanted to be read. They needed it. It was the reason they forced themselves from their world into ours. They wanted us to give them life.”
—John Connolly, The Book of Lost Things (via bardlux)

I know I make a lot of these, but here’s something to ponder on before you reblob the cute baby:
Deaf people don’t wear hearing aids or get implants to benefit themselves. They do it to benefit you.
I can’t speak for all deaf/Deaf people, and I know a lot of HOH folk feel that…
