Caitlyn1 year agoCaitlynMy mother always believed that the eyes are the window to the soul. As corny as it is, she challenged me to always pray before I truly looked at someone, or tried to understand someone and ask God to show me this person how you He see’s them. 0 Reply Malag1 year agoMalagI have to see it first. It’s easy to see it in those we love. With everyone else it’s harder. We are all cut from the same cloth and the cloth has a beautiful weave. 4 Reply AmyMich2111 year agoAmyMich211I have to remind myself daily and be intentional about it. Recently, I have starting writing a note to myself on the day’s notebook sheet – ‘Talk to others as if you were talking to god.’ This has been helpful when I am talking with others, especially when I am online in meetings. I can just glance down at my down and recommit. 2 Reply Ose1 year agoOseSomehow the beauty in others, and with it, love, needs to be consistently felt inside, I guess, independent from what happens around. Sometimes, when consistency is reduced, it helps to remember to greet the divine in the other and bow to it silently when meeting. It is to relocate perceiving not so much the outer appearance but the light we all share. This means as well to let go of any judgement and to meet and perceive and relate with the other beyond adopted approaches and consciously let go...Somehow the beauty in others, and with it, love, needs to be consistently felt inside, I guess, independent from what happens around.

If I manage to be still and open my heart, honoring the beauty in others flows naturally.

It is only when I filter like/dislike, things get messy. 4 Reply One Nurse1 year agoOne NurseBy remembering that we are all inner connected. By leaning in and listening deeper when the impulse is to run or lash out. By remembering our shared humanity 4 Reply Linda1 year agoLindaThis is a good reminder, as I am feeling frightened about the state of the country right now. But fear does not help. There are many beautiful people in my life and I will honor them today. 4 Reply Poo1 year agoPooFirstly, I need to be aware and accept that beauty lies in each and everyone of them that I meet. I will have to be extremely willing to take a moment with the other person to notice and be curious about their gifts. I believe beauty lies in the other person in the form of unique gifts they share with the world .The uniqueness they bring to the world in terms of their personality,work,Aura,warmth,vulnerability,compassion,spoken words,integrity,commitment etc.,We all need each other in this journ...Firstly, I need to be aware and accept that beauty lies in each and everyone of them that I meet.

Think about it as paying it forward. Doing something good for someone else without expecting anything in return. People are carrying around burdens we know nothing about and a little uplift could benefit them in ways we will never know. 4 Reply Journey1 year agoJourneyI needed this question to remind me not to treat others the way they have treated me. To reserve judgement and treat them well regardless of how thoughtless they have been. I am helpful towards these people but I feel resentful below the surface. I do not let it show. I need to do good for them without internal resentment. This question is a reminder to focus on their good qualities and let their bad qualities be between them and their own conscience. 3 Reply sunnypatti1 year agosunnypattiI can honor the beauty in others by honoring their journey and reminding myself that most people are doing the best they can with what they have & know right now. As I continue to learn and grow, I must remember that others are doing the very same thing. 6 Reply Ed Schulte1 year agoEd SchulteReflect it 7 fold. 4 Reply Etta1 year agoEttaI find it hard to honor the beauty of others if I am not first honoring my own beauty. To consistently honor the beauty of others I need a positive Spirit and an open mind. 4 Reply Papilio1 year agoPapilioFirst I need to push the pause button on my judging function. Then, by listening to what others say or what they don’t say with all six senses. Doing so allows me to perceive so much more than spoken words and help me to find the beauty unique to each individual even for several moments. 5 Reply Zenith1 year agoZenithAs I am really bad at seeing beauty in others due to many ugly encounters with the negatives within them, I don’t do this. And I also know there are people who are, for some reason, just plain mean. But I am always kind. And I will try to point to the positive in life, for it is surely there. It gets obliterated by man’s noise. Man imagines himself to be more important than he is. 4 Reply Mica1 year agoMicaWith difficulty. With mindfulness. With the awareness that the flaws I see in others are flaws I share with them. 5 Reply Journey1 year agoJourneyBeautiful Mica 4 Reply Michele1 year agoMicheleBy acknowledging it I can honor the beauty in others. Beauty is not just physical, kindness and compassion are qualities of beauty as well. 4 Reply Katrina1 year agoKatrinaWhat Howie and Vikram said. Also by imagining what might be causing behaviors or words from someone that I find unseemly or irritating. 3 Reply Antoinette1 year agoAntoinetteI can more consistently honor the beauty in others by letting go of judging and labeling. We are taught to divide others by their skin color, race, economic status, beauty, athletic ability, etc. when I see others with the eyes of compassion and loving kindness I am able to see how we all want happiness and we don’t want to suffer. Looking with the eyes of compassion and kindness helps honor others and myself. 3 Reply devy1 year agodevyBy really listening to others and being attentive to them. By telling others how wonderful they are, by thanking them for things they’ve done, complimenting on how they look or what they are wearing. 3 Reply 1 2 Next » My Private Gratitude Journal Write an entry in your private gratefulness journal Get Started This site is brought to you by A Network for Grateful Living, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
