    To step into the shoes of a living legend that a lot of people are still alive to know Ray Charles gestures and how he spoke, and how he carried himself, Jamie played him so well, I forgot that he was Jamie Foxx. He was Ray Charles.

    from 6:42; Ray wasn't really like blind. In fact, if you meet with 90 something percent of blind people you'll see they're not really blind in the sense you per-sieve them/us. That sentence right there tells how poorly society understands blind people and people with differing abilities in general, and how unjust that is.
    Undoubtedly we as blind people are to blame first; social justice ninjas second.
    Dare say I met a gay person but he/she wasn't really gay and your job and career is gone; and despite the fact I disagree with pushing people towards making useless politically correct declarations I believe gay community does well to mobilize when opinions need clarification.
    I love Jammie Fox. He's a world class artist and what i'm saying here doesn't refer to him in particular. I just wanna say that the largest majority of blind people, are not as blind as you per-sieve us, and you, whatever and whoever you are should definitely know this.

    Isaiah 53:5, But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed. For salvation, people just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in the water and of the spirit. Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled with the Holy Ghost and rising again from the dead. That's what Acts 2:38 is. We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man, be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD. We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed. One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritans. Our salvation has to match-up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away. Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st, John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church. It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction. Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, They continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. Jesus Christ was our perfect example back to God. He was baptized and received the Holy Ghost and we must be baptized and receive the Holy Ghost. He was holy and walked in righteousness and we must be holy and walk in righteousness. He died and rose again, and we must die to the things of this world and rise to walk in the newness of life. He prayed to the father showing us how to pray to the father. If you believe in this message, help spread it in the name of Jesus Christ. God bless you for doing so!

    Just a thought...
    Maybe Ray Charles felt womens wrists as a way to guage trust by comparing personalities from other women (granted its flawed) but psychologically that may have been his own way he developed to gauge trust
    it could also tell you a lot
    ie:
    thin and body wrist (ie seriously thin) would reveal eating disorder, maybe poverty in those days
    lumpy wrist or hard skin:
    would reveal to him kealine scar tissue from attempted suicides, mental. health, a warning sign to run, some don't have to be keloid scars but regular scars most people would ignore, but he would then have a mental. image that she or some one did something traumatic had to have happened
    maybe he associated fat people (thicker wrists) with maybe a teacher who back then court beat on kids
    maybe the healthy slender news is warming ie reminds him of his mother (not to be confused with sick or twistedness) but rather a person to trust, nurture and guide him
    the shaking of the hand whilst social is also disguised a check to see if her hards were of a working women (rough) or soft (of a woman who didn't do many labour intense work) ie back then society worked, thought and operated very differently to todays women
    the term beautiful is also perceptive, one might think looks, a beautiful life work wise etc
    and if he was really smart he may used the time to guage a 3-5 handshake to termine a pulse as he is feeling the wrist to guage a how nervous a person is or excited to see him, attractive people make our hearts race when we are with them
    in close contact and to touch the wrist it's kinda personal so if her heart was racing he may have seen that as a way to guage if she was a willing participant for sex (partner seeking)
    again that would be a skill but given he used his other senses to make up for the loss of eye sight then 3 seconds can easily reveal 2 heart beats and how far or close apart they are (but this part is more extreme and unlikely)
