See Better
It's not what you don't see in someone that matters. It's not what's not there, not the fact that someone lacks this or that, not the empty spaces, not the failings, not the mistakes, not the errors in judgement, not the weaknesses, not the human frailties, not the irrational fears, not the dark corners of consciousness, not the disappointments.
It's what you do see that matters. It's the spark of light in someone's eyes, the hesitant but honest hope, the uncertain but unwavering longing for acceptance, the gift of love, no matter how tightly wrapped or how carefully hidden away.
In a world in which we have learned to see with such a critical eye, it is time to see better.
