To put it simply, Wonder would make up for the shortcomings of his blindness by living through others. He would be keenly interested in what others were doing. He also had a “vivid imagination” as he put it. He also wasn’t afraid to share how others had treated him in the past. He said, “And growing up, I was around people who weren’t afraid to say, ‘Man, why are you lookin’ over there? What’s wrong with you? I’m over here. You need to keep your head still.’”
