The case of the blind Milton

paraiso perdido.jpg

Around 1666 a high political employee of England was blind and reduced to extreme poverty. His name was John Milton. At first he despaired, but then he proposed to endorse the old principle that says: "It's like that, it can not be any other way, so you have to accept it." And since his eyes did not allow him to see, he proposed to take all the possible fruit out of his brain and his memory and was composing and dictating to his wife and daughters a poem (which was selling by pages for a few pesos each time to a bookseller, and with that money he managed to survive). And from there was born the famous work entitled "Paradise Lost", which has made famous its author and retains its name for centuries and centuries. Here is the case of a man who, instead of dedicating himself to weeping in vain for a misfortune that has taken place, proposed to remove goods from his own ills, and he obtained them in great abundance.
