We all know the true beauty of people everywhere by Bryant McGill

### We all know the true beauty of people everywhere, because we have all looked into the eyes of children, and saw ourselves looking back. There is a timeless truth reflected in the eyes of children—a mirror that reveals the boundless beauty of humanity. When we gaze into the innocent eyes of a child, we encounter something profound: ourselves. We see the echo of our hopes, the possibility of love untainted by cynicism, and the enduring spirit that transcends borders, cultures, and even time. Children’s eyes are portals to a world untouched by the scars of life. They gaze upon the world not with judgment but with wonder. In their eyes, there is no concept of difference—only recognition. They see not race, wealth, or status, but possibility. Their eyes are filled with curiosity and acceptance, and in those moments, we are reminded of who we once were—and who we can still become. The beauty reflected in children’s eyes is a reminder of our shared humanity. In them, we see vulnerability and strength intertwined, the need for protection balanced by an innate resilience. Their gaze invites us to lay down our defenses, to remember that we too were once explorers of this world, guided not by fear but by an insatiable desire to understand and connect. Looking into the eyes of a child, we are reminded that love is our natural state. Before we learned to mistrust, to guard our hearts, we lived in a world where kindness was our currency. In the unguarded gaze of a child, we see the purity of love—love given freely, without conditions or expectations. It is a love that affirms our worth simply because we exist. And perhaps this is why meeting the eyes of a child can be so disarming. They see past the masks we wear, past the titles we hold, and into the core of who we are. They reflect our truest selves back to us—not the version we project to the world, but the being we are when stripped of pretense. When we recognize this reflection, we are given a sacred opportunity: to reclaim our innate beauty, to live with greater authenticity, and to extend the same unconditional love we see mirrored in their gaze. Their eyes ask us not only to remember who we are but to live in a way that honors that memory. So, let us look into the eyes of children and see not just their beauty, but our own. Let us be reminded that beneath the surface of every human being lies the same potential for love, compassion, and wonder. In seeing them, we see ourselves—unmasked, hopeful, and endlessly beautiful.
