Where Beauty Resides

Fri, 05/13/2016 - 06:33 -- Jgilly

The most exquisite thing you can be is nothing but yourself

Yet most people are sham these days

Splendor doesn’t rest in appearances

Beauty comes from the heart

The morals

The noble objectives of a person

Most fail to grasp

If they are true to themselves

Rather than conforming

To the ideals of social influence

Everything would be superior

You are not just anybody

You!

Yourself

Is unlike anybody else

You are beautiful

Because you are irreplaceable

In the world of today

Individuality is a technology

That seems to be disremembered

Most people spend their lives hypothetically locked up

If you take a closer look at the lives of those who are open

It’s almost as if you are looking at humanized gold.
