\n

Since the vicissitudes in my life have reeked havoc, I no longer have the time to let beauty pass me by unnoticed. This is a wonderful world and it is\u00a0filled\u00a0<\/em>with beautiful things. If you look closely at this world and understand the nature of your reality, you\u2019ll find the truth! You want to know the truth? The truth is that the\u00a0only\u00a0<\/em>ugliness in the world today exists in the heart of man himself! Think about it. When you awaken in the morning and look to the sunrise, the only thing in any shape or form close to it\u2019s beauty is, of course, the sunset! All around us each and every day there\u2019s nothing but beauty! The\u00a0ugliness\u00a0<\/em>that lives in man comes out in the form of his\u00a0actions!<\/em> Wars, pollution, global warming, GMO\u2019s, 9\/11, etc. These are some of the things manifested by man. For progress and money! When it comes to the materialistic nature of man… no holds barred! If something contains a profit man goes\u00a0\u201call in\u201d<\/em> so to speak. Nothing is sacred, no one is safe! No matter how beautiful and majestic something is makes no difference. If a profit can be made it\u00a0will\u00a0<\/em>be made no matter what has to suffer. With all that in mind just remember to really use your eyes to see the beauty that surrounds us every day. We are not perfect but we have the capacity of perfection. Peace and blessings!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
