beauty

"Why is everyone so happy except for me?" asked the student.

"Because they have learned to see goodness and beauty everywhere." said the master.

"Why don't I see goodness and beauty everywhere?"

"Because you cannot see outside of you what you fail to see inside."

~Anthony DeMello

Wonderful post...here's my beauty of a niece. I think her love for her precious violin makes her even more beautiful!
