The Beauty of a Soul

I think a lot about the beauty of souls. A beautiful soul is more attractive than good looks. A beautiful soul glows with a beauty both quiet and secret. A beautiful soul is undetectable or subtle to those who look with unseeing eyes, but there are few things more beautiful.

A beautiful soul can be seen in the shadow cast by the brow over the eyes. A beautiful soul can be heard in sighs and quiet mumblings. A beautiful soul can be felt with a gentle touch. A beautiful soul beams outward in the upward glance of a downfacing face.

A beautiful soul never grows old. It is eternal. A beautiful soul is always pleasing to its admirer and brings him joy.

A beautiful soul, when it is separated from its lover, brings him sadness, but he rejoices in its communion with God
