We are all guilty of it at one time or another. We only see someone from the surface only…and with that…we can be quick to judge on the type of person…that person may really be. It really is sad…but so true. The infamous…”Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” is worth more than it’s weight in gold. Haven’t you ever met someone and the more you get to know them, the more handsome or pretty, they become…if only in your eyes. This is simply because…you see the beauty that is within that person.
Just like this beautiful rose…each individual person..has so many delicate layers to them…each one more special than the next. Just like the rose…the more you get to know this person…the more the petals begin to open until it is in full bloom….the only major difference is that once you get to know this individual completely…the beauty within that person will always resonate for you. It’s a wonderful feeling really…looking past a person’s looks to see the real beauty within that soul.
Beauty…It Comes From The Heart
Everyone matters…they all really matter. Well, they do for me anyway. Maybe I’m just an old softy and wish to believe in the good in everyone..but I truly believe it. I feel that everyone always has something wonderful to bring to the table called, “Life.” It’s with this that brings out the beauty in people. This is part of what makes people so special…in so many ways. A pretty face…or that handsome rugged smile…oh it can all melt the faintest of hearts…mine included….but its what inside that brings out the beauty in people. It is so true…but one really needs to look deep inside the soul of another to find out the true beauty of each and every one.
Be Still My Heart
All shapes…sizes…colors…that is what everyone is made of. But remember…we all share one common goal..to one day meet that special someone that will make our heart skip a beat…makes us laugh until we cry..and simply take our breath away….in more ways than one. The one thing that most people just don’t get is that…the beauty that each individual sees in someone goes way beyond the physical…oh, I know…yes that handsome…good looking guy or that girl that has a beauty all her own, well this is all so wonderful…but there is so much more to the person you fall in love with…or even just become friends with.
It’s the way that they carry themselves..the way that they treat other people..the kindness that they give…the love that they have to give…this my friends is what makes a person beautiful…or handsome…however the phrase fits.
This is why…it breaks my heart and saddens my soul when I hear or read about how people can immediately jump to conclusions about someone that they may have never even met. We’re not the judge or the jury where people are concerned…when it comes to evaluating people. Because you know what…we, my friends are being judged to…simply by the way we look. So, when you see a couple together…do not just wonder why…people are together as a couple or just as friends…because…they love the heart of that individual…and it’s made the connection with that human being.
Quick To Judge
Even at my age…I must admit that I’m a bit naive when it comes to people. What I mean by this…is that I am so guilty of wanting to get to know someone before anything else. I believe that getting to know someone..is to know their soul…this always…for me…brings out the beauty in that person. Always remember that it’s not all about that pretty face or handsome looks. Because…a mean demeanor…attitude or just a downright negative way of thinking…can change all of the beauty that’s on the surface….people really need to remember that.
So..before you start to wonder why someone loves the other person that is by their side…always remeber…they fell in love with whats deep down inside with that person first.
Always remember….beauty is only skin deep and will fade with time….but the beauty within your heart and soul…will resonate and shine bright forever.

Thanks Brenda for the thoughtful reminders.
Great post! I judge based on how the other person holds a conversation with me and if talking to them makes me smile or evoke any positive emotion at all! Sometimes people give off a vibe that is off-putting. Looks are only a very small percentage but they can quickly fade or get elevated based on how the conversation goes..
