The eye of the soul sees what is all around and not just what is in front of it, it sees down deep, sees what is constant and what is true. The eye of the soul is not distracted by awkwardness, or what is irrelevant. When its vision is clear the eye of the soul reveals the core of what is important and what is beautiful. It sees calm in the midst of chaos, it sees through the fog and sees what can be. For those who can truly see, the eye of the soul can not be blinded.

Jeff,
Your words remind me of a quote from a favorite book:
"And now here is my secret,
a very simple secret;
it is only with the heart
that one can see rightly;
what is essential is
invisible to the eye".
From Antoine de Saint-Exupery's
The Little Prince (which I loved reading in high school French ...long before it was a TV cartoon).
