While they were chatting, she asked him; 'why are you always happy? I feel sad most of the times.'<br />
<br />
Her blind boyfriend grabbed a blindfold, covered her eyes, and asked her: 'What do you see now?'<br />
<br />
'Nothing,' she replied.<br />
<br />
He smiled and said: 'Great! This is your blank canvas. Now you can paint whatever you want on it.',<br />
