What Lies Within
What lies within
What really matters is not the color of ones skin or what country a person lives within. Those things are trivial in the meaning of life. To fight over them is the meaning of strife. When you choose to be a friend, look not on what lies outward. Instead look deeper at what lies within. The caring, loving, gentleness a person truly carries is actually more important. Yes it is what lies within. Take time to look beyond ones color of skin, ones language they speak or where they begin. Look deeper at the heart of the matter to what lies within.For that is where you will find the precious gift of a friend. Offering your hand to one different than you. That is what truly says the meaning of you . Don't get caught up in the differences you face. We each are all different in our own little ways. For that is actually the beauty of the human race. So take time to focus on each one you meet. Find the beauty they carry from what lies within.
