Gosh to show you how the power of belief in ones dreams can allow us to accomplish anything our heart desires.

This story moved me, I trust it will move others here as well.:nod:

48-year-old Thomas Graham is building a house in Texas pretty much by himself.

And although that job alone isn't remarkable, just imagine trying to put up a three-bedroom, two-bath ranch without any blueprints -- and doing it in total darkness.

Thomas says he started dreaming of this shortly after the day he went blind at the age of 18, which was the same day his father was shot and died.

Thank you for this video vitalux.
It is good to remember that while the world around seems so disjointed there are many people in it who are happy to be of assistance to others.
