When
you find beauty,
truth,
love,
treasure
it.
Hold
it;
be
gentle
and
prepared to let go if it needs it
or
if other beauty,
other
truth,
other
love
succeeds
it.
When
others find beauty,
truth,
and
love
and
you cannot see it,
respect
it,
be
gentle with it -
it
might be you who is blind,
not
they who are deceived.
Do
not cling to what you see is beautiful,
true,
good
and
wise
or
use them as shields to hold off
other
people’s minds.
But
see the outworking of the others' beauty,
their
truth,
their
goodness
and
if it is beautiful,
celebrate
-
Take
truth and beauty
wherever
you may find it.
