Somewhere, somehow there a people living blessedly beautiful lives.

Every day on planet earth
There is more beauty
Than one could hope to see
In a thousand lifetimes
–
Every day on planet earth
Someone falls in love in Paris
A thousand heroes suffer in silence
To give their kids the best possible start
–
Every day on planet earth
A man saves his best friends life
A family saves an addicts soul
And a child sees the ocean
For the very first time
–
Every day on planet earth
A thousand lanterns fill the sky
Fire flies light up the night
And fireworks inspire awe
In the minds of the young
–
Every day on planet earth
Salvation is found
A life is filled with glory
And redemption is found
In the life of a soldier
–
May we all find our way
Towards the brighter side of life
May we all live charmed lives
Rich in meaning and purpose
And may love save my tortured soul

This is the kind of stuff I think about a lot, with all the ugliness I’ve endured I feel like I deserve to find some of the endless beauty that permeates some walks of life.
Somewhere, somehow there a people living blessedly beautiful lives, I’m on the hunt for these people and places where life is not so heartbreakingly tough.
I have observed that when one has seen the ugliness, one’s sense and appreciation of the beautiful is extraordinarily enhanced.

I agree completely, if there was no ugly beauty wouldn’t be special

Sadly true. The human condition operates in this way. No sadness, no appreciation of deep joy. No pain, no pain relief! Nor gain! The list is endless. Keep up the great work! ✍
