” You look in the mirror and
sometimes may see a
mess of a human being.
But you don’t see the lives
you’ve touched, or the
people you’ve saved.
You don’t see all the love
you’ve given freely,
or the extraordinary
memories you’ve made.
You are a book of beautiful
moments and feelings.
You are not weak because you cry.
You are not a simple being.
You make plants come back to life,
and you turn cold rain showers
into warm downpours.
You are a piece of art that
makes people feel things.
You don’t bring people to
their knees, you give them
a solid footing
And that is beautiful.”
[ source ] Khalil Gibran
