something that blind people easily can "see" or recognize in others... I mean, when a blind person describes you, it is not normally based on external characteristics or treats, rather on inner treats or characteristics.... could you please name a few?
(for instance, ingenuity)

It would seem that someone who has never "seen" in the typical sense would have distinct meanings for all word that we usually use to describe appearance, however, the blind individual would have a more profound meaning for the word.

To such a person, what would these words mean?:
An "ugly" person.
A "beautiful"...
radiant
slob
pig
plain
classy
prim....
.......

It would seem that they would recognize these attributes easily along some of the deeper sense of the words. Being blind doesn't seem to exclude their use of these words.

Good luck.
