Unless we take the time to see others as we see ourselves, we can try to see as far as we can see, but we will be unable to see the forest for the trees.
In America today and probably tomorrow, we focus too much on the big picture of life without realizing we must take a step back and look at the little things we need to be grateful for. Unfortunately, we shape our lives around the big news stories without creating the small meaningful life stories we need to be establishing in order to survive. There are a multitude of wonderful stories waiting to be told, we must take the time to seek, create, and watch them unfold.
Life consists of simple words, simple love, simple understanding, and the eyes to behold the beauty in all of us. If we continue to live life just looking outside ourselves towards others , we can never see the inside of ourselves or marvel at what lies in our own hearts, or the hearts of others. We need not be blinded by the light.
If we are to create a whole new generation of children who will see each other as equals, they must see the love with there own eyes. Reading about it in books and just hearing about in it church, will not be enough to provide them with a "seeing is believing" app. They must be witness to this love everyday in order for them to see what life is all really all about. This must be not just a classroom discussion for them, they need to see it with there own tender eyes. Remember, the eyes are the gateway and corridor to the brain, which is the library where they will store the images set before them.
"As far as 'I' can see, the "eyes " have it. Let's remove our blinders and show our future generations a clear image of life, as far as the eye can see.
Do you see what I see?
