The Beauty of the Soul

It is the house of consciousness channeled from above It is the home where dreams reside The cozy place of love Invisible, intangible distinct from flesh and bone commingled with the breath of life brought forth by God alone The coverings that we can see the body, clothes and hair can misdirect the human eye from treasures buried there Ravaged by disease and time with battle scars to show The human mind is prone to find some judgment to bestow Our love is often limited to what we see and feel and carelessly we overlook what outer shells conceal The loveliness of human flesh does not increase one's worth No man can judge the value of a single life on earth To take a closer look in faith should be our common goal for deep within each person lies the beauty of the soul
