WHAT MAKES US BEAUTIFUL

Have you ever stopped in the forest…and looked up at the trees…

rising from the Earth…in divine simplicity?

“This tree is so beautiful…as is that one.” you exclaim.

“But what makes the forest beautiful is how no two trees are the same.”

 

Have you ever stopped under an ebony sky…and looked up at the stars…

the clouds…the constellations…Venus, Jupiter…or Mars?

“This star is so beautiful…as is that one.” you exclaim.

“But what makes the sky so beautiful is how no two stars are the same.”

 

Have you ever been walking in a garden and stopped to look around

at the individual flowers that populate the ground.

“This flower is so beautiful…as is that one.” you exclaim.

“But what makes the garden beautiful is how no two flowers are the same.”

 

Each tree, each star, each flower has it’s own beauty when detached…

but when they come together…their beauty is unmatched.

 

Perhaps nature is trying to show us…there is a reason why…

we should try to see all people like the trees, the flowers, the sky.

 

Perhaps if we paused a moment and used our eyes too see

we would notice all the people of Earth…in their divine simplicity.

“This person has a beauty all their own…as does that one.” we'd exclaim.

 

“But what makes the Earth so beautiful is how no two people are the same.”
