Windows to your Soul
I'm reading the Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning and really the whole book is fantastic. Today as I was riding the train I had to stop reading because I could not read further without pondering and digesting this thought: The eyes are the windows to the soul is not just a nice phrase talking about beautiful deep green eyes. It's an absolutely true phrase, but not in the way most people think. The way that you view the world is a view of your soul. Think about that. Two people can look at the same person or object and see completely different things right? What makes me look at a punk kid and think "what a waste of youth" and someone else look at the exact same kid and think "look at that potential!" It is a view of my soul when I see beauty and when I cast judgement on what I see. What do your eyes say about you??
