Walls are Not Barriers to Beauty
All my life I wanted to be be able to make music, but all I could do was play the notes. I do not have the music ‘gift’, but we all have some ‘gift’ that only has value if we choose to give it. An appreciation of the beauty of a ‘gift’ can dissolve the walls that separate us. As you listen to this young girl, her face and movement symbolize true freedom of expression and I believe it has a profound impact. I do not think it makes any difference if the people she is touching are conservatives, liberal, or Republicans or Democrats. We need leaders now who have a ‘gift’ that draws us together in the beauty of our possibility. Beauty is a spiritual bridge, not a physical or intellectual barrier.
