Eyes – Windows of your soul
We spend large chunks of our busy days with our minds far away from where our bodies are.
Rushing toward the next moment, this present moment passes us by. And it will not come again.
Often this means that we are ”too busy” to look at people-even at the people we love.
Even when we are sharing good news,we frequently do this without making real contact.
Yes it’s the contact we make that keeps our relationships alive.
Make it a habit to look at the people you love when you talk to them or when they are trying to talk to you.
Send love through your eyes.
Celebrate and enjoy moments of closeness.
The eyes truly are the windows of the soul.
We can give so much love to another person through a simple glance.
We can let someone know that they are loved or understood or value without a single word being spoken.
Why don’t you do it TODAY.
I am attending a seminar for the next two days and might not be able to write but will visit you if I can 🙂 Take care and I send you lots of love xx

Amanda, thank you for this reminder. When I take the time to look into people’s eyes, I have a strong sense of having been away. Where have I been?! What have I missed?
And I notice how few take the time to reciprocate.
I will look anyway.
I love this posting. Big hug to you.
October 22, 2010 at 8:09 am

October 22, 2010 at 8:15 am
You are very welcome …big hugs xx
October 21, 2010 at 10:22 pm
Funny thing is, we end up giving most of our time and attention to the things that don;t last, and bypass the things that do, like our relationships. Thanks for this. – bill
October 22, 2010 at 8:15 am
Well said my friend, I am with you on this one. Hope you’re well and sending you big hugs xx
October 21, 2010 at 10:29 pm
I always see you, Buttercup.
Why do you fill me up
buttercup, baby
just to let me down
and mess me around
And then, worst of all
you never call, baby
when you say you will
But I love you still
October 22, 2010 at 8:16 am
And I love you still too my dear friend hahahaha… big hugs x

The eyes are the most expressive feature of our face, and you are very right, sometimes a glance is enough to tell someone you love them, or make their day. Very inspiring post!

Ooh, those sparkly eyes… So true, your words. And I am getting better at it as I go about my days.
Send love through your eyes. Yes. Lips can pretend, but eyes will tell you the truth of it.

My windows need washing… or rather, new glass.

LOL…mine too 🙂 xx
October 22, 2010 at 4:11 am
Amanda, you are just a beacon of Love and positive energy. The world and especially our little poetic piece of it is better because of you.
There is so much value in listening to each other, and yes, it begins with looking at and connecting with the person you are with…being totally in the moment! It drives me crazy when people “half listen”…I often say to them…”Stop using my time talking thinking about what you’re gonna say next.”
Your first line about how our minds are far from our bodies reminds me of the famous John Lennon quote: “Life is what happens while you’re busy making other plans.”
Be well my dear…xoxo
October 22, 2010 at 8:36 am
Aww Giovanni, your words have melt my heart, thanks so much for these kind and sweet words. I cannot agree with you more…it actually hurt my feelings when I see someone not really listening or taking part in our conversation…I am very much a touch and eye contact person and will remember your saying .…”Stop using my time talking thinking about what you’re gonna say next.” just awesome!!! The quote of John Lennon’s one of my favourites!! You be well today and always my dear friend…I send you big hugs xxx
October 22, 2010 at 4:57 am
And you are all about eyes, Ms B! Have a great seminar!
October 22, 2010 at 8:37 am
Thanks my dear…starting in about 2 hours. 🙂 Big hugs and have fun today 🙂 xx
October 22, 2010 at 9:54 am
That is so true. I often feel myself rushing and missing precious moments. Although I suppose every moment is precious. thank you for reminding me to see with love.
October 25, 2010 at 10:23 am
Hope you had a wonderful weekend Lisa and thanks for your visit 🙂 xx
October 22, 2010 at 12:15 pm
You do have an excellent point too often do we try to avoid eye contact to not have to give a piece of ourselves with our words. I tend to think the habit follows us home too. Awesome buttercup! I will take this advise to heart. So here’s looking at you! 🙂
October 25, 2010 at 10:29 am
Thanks for your comment my friend, here’s looking at you too kid 🙂 🙂 x
October 22, 2010 at 2:22 pm

Hugs! xxx

WINDOWS OF THE SOUL speaks the truth. We need to keep our minds where our moment is in order to really live. Thank you for this powerful message. Peace, Sharie

October 23, 2010 at 1:52 am
Hey, Buttercup! I’m still in the process of moving, but I just wanted to say beautifully written with a beautiful message :3
October 25, 2010 at 10:37 am
Hey girlfriend, so happy to see you here…I have been missing you also. Hope life treats you well my dear friend xxxx ove and hugs always xxx
October 23, 2010 at 8:50 am
So true … I loved this. My favorite line is “Rushing toward the next moment, this present moment passes us by. And it will not come again.” We miss so much trying to get to the next moment.
Best wishes and much love…
October 25, 2010 at 10:38 am
Thanks my dearest friend…what you’ve said’s so very true…we don’t make enought time for each other. I hope you had a wonderful weekend and send you lots of love xxx

Wise words. Today with cell phones and computers communicating eye to eye is not so easy now.

October 25, 2010 at 2:03 pm
What a beautiful sentiment and wonderful advice for us all, Amanda. It’s so important to slow down and really appreciate the people we love. We tend to forget how fleeting life can be. xoxo
October 26, 2010 at 8:58 am
I agree and most of us just don’t make enough time…I am trying to change that also. Big smiles my friend xx
October 30, 2010 at 12:56 am
I am in total agreement! You said it beautifully!
