Beauty and Kindness

Beauty and Kindness
It is believed the latter comes with the former,
But that is not right.
The former is something for which we yearn--
While the latter is something that we learn.
They rarely come together

I tend to judge people more so on what is on the inside (for you can be beautiful and ugly within) rather than what is on the outside but I must confess that as human nature, I do pass judement as to if I find them attractive. However, in my defense, I never let that be a factor in deciding if I like that person. Oh, I can go on and on about this topic! :) Thank you for the great post, Gabe!
