Post Twenty-three: Beauty

perspective

A quest for eternity is surely, also, a quest for true beauty. Thomas Aquinas said, "Beauty is that which being seen, pleases." What are the beautiful things that I do not recognize because I cannot see? Where are the pleasures my distraction blocks from me? What are you trying to show me, Lord? 

Open my eyes that I may see.
