Opinion: 'The next time you’re out in the world, pay attention to what’s in your way, and perhaps move it'

Tabitha Kenlon IN NURSERY SCHOOL, I was taught a song about going on a bear hunt. Finding the bear was not really the point; rather, the song instructed the wee choristers about the way prepositions govern our movements.

His trepidation is a common sentiment among both children and adults – it is difficult to imagine, in a literal way, what someone else sees, and that uncertainty can be frightening. My dad has suggested that since I’m good at a lot of things , I should also get good at being vision impaired. The nondisabled person can often easily make adjustments, looking around for an easier route, or putting away the distracting phone. People with disabilities have fewer options. Our paths are frequently strewn with obstacles, and I sometimes feel like I’m in a video game as I dodge protruding bicycles, untidy cafe furniture and illegally parked cars.

But if you do leave your car in my way, at least don’t lock the doors – if I can’t easily go over or around it, I might very well go through it!
