I wish you’d see yourself
As beautiful as I see you
Why can’t you see yourself
As beautiful as I see you
*With thanks to the Avett Brothers.
There is divine goodness in all of us. The goodness that man possesses, en toto, the virtuosity of us all, is beautiful. I may not possess your goodness nor you mine, but the twain are inextricable and perfect. The smallest and greatest unique and necessary for the whole. We need not strive toward, nor be the same. We simply are.
I wish you’d see yourself, as beautiful as I see you. Why can’t you see yourself, as beautiful as I see you.
