As humans we have continuosly been told "Beauty is only skin deep." This statement is false. Being that there are so many sides, to the many coins of illusions, of which have been applied to our society and culture. We can only see beauty in the mirror/ earth/ trees/ others/ and etc. But the sheer reflection is the source we from which it comes. Beauty is seen with our physical eye and our spiritual eye; therefore I ask, "Through which eye/eyes, are we really viewing ourselves and the world?"

Everyday presents an opportunity to open one's eyes, your physical as well as spiritual eye. In our culture we have been trained to ignore the beauty of our spirits within. We have been pumped full of non-sense that material things, i.e. T.V., Clothes, Houses, Cooperate Jobs, Money, and etc. (all things that are of the physical world) are our reality. Physical reality is much easier observed with our tangible eyes.

If we were to close our tangible eyes, we would begin to see with our one spiritual eye. Pretend you are walking through a store (grocery, clothing, electronics, and etc.) what would feel the want, and or need to purchase when you have no money in the bank account. Putting in perspective you having no money to buy the things you want/think you need how would this make you feel internally?

Now, Imagine walking through one of your favorite stores with a blindfold on. With physical sight gone, but this time you have money to spend what would you want most? And now, ask yourself a question, would you want the gift of sight to return to your physical eyes, or would you for the first time in your life see the beauty in physical blindness. For seeing with our spiritual eye is what Jesus once taught in Matthew 6:22- "The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light."

With our physical eyes being closed  only then will we see true reality, thus our spiritual eye automatically activates and takes over. Reality is not what we are fed by our optic nerves, our optic nerves can close doors unto the true reality of our potential and ultimate being as well as understaning of true consciousness and the power that we all have within.

So let us close our eyes and become awakened to the beauty of reality. Then and only then can our spiritual eye show us who we are, what we really need, and we as humans will begin to realize our full potential as light workers, healers, meditators, lovers, truthers, world changers, and beauty that we truly were created to be. Beauty lies within every human being.  Activate your beauty. Close your eyes .
