Let Your Heart Show You The Correct Path to Follow.
|
People try to "fit in" and to be accepted by the normal crowd. The question is: what is "normal" and is normal the same for everybody? I believe that there is no precise definition of that word. Instead, each one of us must come up with a definition which fits us. What I consider normal may not be what you consider normal.
The important thing is to discover what we are here in this life to do and then do it. Usually, the heart knows what is best for us, what is normal, and what path to take. Why do so many people find it difficult to listen to their hearts?
If "normal" meant being the same as all the other people in this world, it would really be a dull place to live. Human beings are constantly growing, changing, and becoming. We are dynamic not static. We are constantly making decisions about our lives. This is a wonderful characteristic of our species.

What If You Are Not Perfect in All Ways?
|
Ah! Now here is an area where all of us have something in common! No One on this earth is perfect! No one is perfectly beautiful, perfectly handsome, perfectly smart, perfectly good, or perfectly bad. We all have our flaws and we all have our good points. To be happy, we must find those good points, those special talents and celebrate them! It serves no purpose to constantly criticize ourselves because we are not like someone we admire. They are not like us, either!
People spend so much of their time worrying about being beautiful or appealing that they do not see how terrific they truly are! What a waste of time trying to look like a model or a movie star! What a waste of Life!
Beauty comes in all sizes, shapes, colors, and forms. The most powerful beauty radiates from those people who love themselves no matter what and are eager to share that love with others. Such beauty can just as easily be found in someone wearing a size 28 dress as it can be found in someone wearing a size 8 dress.
There is great beauty in all of us if we spend time looking for it instead of trying to fit into a smaller size costume. In the end, true friends do not see the size of a person they love, they see the beautiful light which radiates from within.

What of the Physically Challenged?
|
To live with a physical challenge is to learn about the many kinds of beauty in a very special way. No one is perfect, we already know. Having a body that is not perfect does not in anyway change the beautiful light from within! In the grand scheme of things, what does it matter if someone has scars, if another has no legs, if someone else cannot see?
Listen to the tenor, Andrea Bocelli whose eyes do not see, and you will begin to learn about true Sight and true Beauty! His voice is that of an angel! Surely, his heart is full of Love! He is Beauty!
