Braille: a way to read without looking at the text

If you can read braille, you can read it without looking, and yet sighted people rarely learn or use it. How come?
 
I think it’s difficult to learn. I was trying to learn to write words so I could do a birthday card for my blind friend but it was difficult to learn maybe it would be easier if people were taught as kids. Blind children seem to pick it up easily whereas as adults who go blind find it harder to learn despite having a better grasp of the alphabet.
