What do you see?

When you see 2 girls holding hands in mall, what do you see?
Do you see 2 lesbians getting to know one another?
Or 2 sisters taking care of each other?
Or maybe a friend, giving moral support through a simple gesture?

When you see a couple, sitting at the table, what do you see?
Do you see a date on a dime?
Or 2 friends, catching up on old times?
Or perhaps, waiting for a friend who is taking his time?

When you see a person, dressed in a particular way, what do you see?
Do you see a bookworm, out to see some sunlight?
Or a lady getting a stroll in the moonlight? *wink* *wink*
Or perhaps simply you have pre-judge by what seems to be right?

When you see a prostitute on the street, what do you see?
Do you see a slut who'd sleep with everyone and everything?
Or do you see a slave, trying to survive doing anything?
I see a life, calling out for help, who needs the Lord who can do all things.

When you see a rock band, what do you see?
Do you see a group that has given themselves to the dark?
Or a bunch of pretentious people, catering to those with that mark?
Or perhaps rage and aggression that does not have an outlet with which to park?



For who we are on the outside is by no means a reflection of who we are on the inside. When we dig deeper, we find a first impression masks a whole lot of hurt, pain, joy, attitude and character. So the question is:

When you see a person, what do you see?
Do you see impressions, character based on what's on the outside?
I prefer to wait, meet and discover what's really on the inside.
