I Appreciate The Beauty In Another
Aren't people beautiful; their eyes, the quirky mannerisms that make them unique, their humaness? When was the last time you really looked at someone and saw them as they are, right now, in this moment? Too often we take others for granted, particularly those that are closest to us, those we love and trust and share our deepest truth with. Just look how much beauty! The heart could burst open with it! How we see others is ultimately how we will see ourselves. If we see only faults and imperfections, then so shall we focus on those parts of ourselves that we find lacking or flawed. Let's celebrate beauty! Natural, real, honest beauty. Let's appreciate it in others, and honour it as the blessed gift of abundance that it is.
Take a moment today to appreciate the beauty in another. You may do this however you wish, whether it be through words, actions or simply silent acknowledgement. They will feel it. Imagine how it would feel to do this every day, and imagine the healing this kind of appreciation could bring to the planet.
