Beauty is Blind - What is Beautiful for You?

I heard a story from a friend, Nick Vijucic.

After a Fun Run, he was introduced to a blind girl about 5 year old.
The mother told her daughter how amazing Nick is.
That in spite of his disability -not having arms and legs.
He lives an inspiring life.

The daughter wanted to 'see' for herself Nick by touching him.
Nick gladly agreed. The girl's mother guided her daughter's hand as she calmly touched Nick's shoulder and the strange little foot.
When the girl put her hands on his faced, she screamed!

"What? My beautiful face scares you?" Nick asked, laughing.
"No! It's that hair all over you!" Are you a wolf?"

It was the first time for the girl to feel a beard.
And it was not something She had her idea of what was attractive for her and obviously Nick's beard was not on the list.

Nick wasn't offended. He reminded me that beauty is definitely in the eyes -and touch- of the beholder.


You are booked for greatness,
