A kind word

A darlin nephew, shared what his grampa told him. Goes something like this, 'Always find something good to say to someone, even if only to tell them they have pretty shoes'.

That little bit of wisdom, can keep the peace, or simply bring joy to a down spirit.

Another thought from grampa is that 'beauty is not found in the physical appearance, but in the heart'.

If more people would take time to look at the heart and not judge a person by how they appear in their eyes, our world would be a far more beautiful place. The body is a mere shell, it is the heart of the person that is the true telling. Some of the most beautiful people in the world have hearts of stone, they are not beautiful at all. And ever so many that society call ugly, would do anything for anyone and expect nothing in return. They have the true beauty, and if you look with genuine eyes, it will shine through so that even you can see it. ;O)

I don't know if I quoted Grampa Sean accurately, but you get the meaning. So next time you see someone, look past that shell and into the heart, you may be surprised.

A fair face may fade, but a beautiful soul lasts forever.
