“I must say to all of you something that I was thinking,” Wonder remarked. “I wanted to let the world know this, but I wanted to say it right now. You know there have been rumors about me seeing and all that.
“But seriously, you know the truth. The truth is, shortly after my birth, I became blind. Now, that was a blessing. Because it’s allowed me to see the world in the vision of truth,’ he continued. “See people in the spirit of them. Not how they look or what color they are, but what color is their spirit.”
