I have discovered that what you see is not necessarily what you get. What you hear might not necessarily be what it ought to mean. Most of us usually do not look into the eyes of the people we talk to. I have observed that the eyes can reveal the whole truth about someone's personality or about a situation.The eyes as its often said is the mirror to the soul. Indeed, it is the doorway to reveal all the deep and secret things that pertains to man.
The eyes tell a story that no one else will ever understand. One look into the eyes can reveal if sadness is behind that smile. It can reveal when someone is lying or even pretending. Simply put, your eyes betray you every time you try to say something different. It simply exposes you. As long as the heart is beating and feeling then the eyes will tell your story.
Someone said "the eyes shout what the lips fear to say."
You might see a well dressed man, comfortable and all but a look in his eyes and you might discover he is most miserable of men. You might see that fellow in the nice car but not everything might be nice and neat at home and except you look into the eyes, you won't get the true facts. Sometimes you see a woman who doesn't look left or right when she manouvers a major road, instead of judging her and shouting the popular "go and get a driver" a deeper look in the eyes will tell you the reason she is absent minded. She might have just passed through a hell of an emotional abuse from the man she married. Sometimes, you see the prettiest of ladies and you would never believe that she has a philandering husband. Its her eyes that will inform you of her true secrets. You might see a lovely looking couple with pictures all over facebook but that might really be where it ends. It might all just be an appearance, so check out their eyes. That woman who called in sick to work yesterday and came today with heavy Make-up and long sleeves , might be trying to hide the cuts and bruises of the physical beating her husband gave to her but you can't detect her pain until you search her eyes. She just might be the victim of the most pleasant of men at work who turns into a beast once he gets into the confines of his home.
The point is sometimes, you might see someone have the "great life" but it could just be an art. You need to be able to see behind the facade. What does that smile really mean? What is really behind that blank look on that pretty face? What's with that mean boss's disposition? How about that rude attendant at the gate of the supermarket? The policeman? Your employee? Your colleague? Your spouse? Next time you talk with anyone, look behind the facade. The eyes will tell you the real story because once you identify the problem, you just might be the one to make the world a better place for someone else .
Finally remember, The Lord sees what happens everywhere; he is watching us, whether we do good or evil. (Proverbs 15:3 GNT)
Cheers!
