Everyone we meet has enormous amounts of beauty within them. Sometimes our blindness prevents us from seeing what our hearts know is real. Sometimes we allow the words we hear to taint our vision, but the beauty is still there like gems waiting to be unearthed. If we fail to see our own beauty, it becomes difficult to see the beauty in others. If we fail to see the beauty in others, it also becomes difficult to see the beauty within ourselves. At times it only takes a simple act of kindness to reveal beauty. A smile, a touch, a listening ear, or a helping hand can soften a person’s shell and allow us to glimpse the pearls of beauty they guard from others.
Beauty speaks to beauty, and grace speaks to grace. By sharing our inner beauty we receive beauty in return. There are times when our attempts to extend beauty and grace appear to be rebuffed, but nothing ever returns to us void. Beauty reflects, echoes, and shadows us with our every attempt. The people who rebuff our kindness have yet to recognize the child of The Divine within themselves. Our grace softens their shell. In time, they will discover there is nothing to fear — from us, or from others.
