Open to beauty.

I am surrounded by beauty.

With eyes open I can see beyond
the bare earth,
the cracks in the ground,
the brown, almost dead, grass.

Even in these sparsed conditions
I can see beauty. 











Just like earth
our souls are beautiful too.

Even though we are sometimes
bare,
cracked,
brown and dull
we are all
beautiful.

We just have to open our eyes
and look.

We have to open our souls to accept what is there.

I challenge you to look around you right now.
Notice what you see,
 hear and feel.
Look down, up and sideways.

There is beauty.
You are surrounded by beauty.

Now look at yourself.

Can you see it??

The beauty.

Your beauty.

You are
beautiful.

Your soul is
beautiful.
