"Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?"
A woman and her little grandson, whose face was sprinkled with bright freckles, spent the day at the zoo. Lots of children were waiting in line to get their faces painted.
"You've got so many freckles, there's no place to paint!" a girl in line said to the little fella.
Embarrassed, the little boy dropped his head. His grandmother knelt down next to him and said, "I love your freckles. When I was a little girl I always wanted freckles. Freckles are beautiful."
The boy looked up, "Really?"
"Of course," said the grandmother. "Why just name me one thing that's prettier than freckles."
The little boy thought for a moment, looked into his grandma's eyes and softly whispered, "Wrinkles."
Yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. God looks into your eyes and sees a beautiful person. Remember that as you listen to life and make a life, not just a living today.
