From Oyster to Pearl

Kaceri my love, if you've seen an oyster, then you'll agree with this oxymoron: It's pretty ugly.

Can anything so ugly as the oyster, really produce a pearl?

When you look at people, especially those going thru a rough time, do you see oysters or pearls? Do others view YOU as a pearl or an oyster?

 It all depends on how you see yourself.


I don't know why people judge everything by its cover. The Oyster is the best example of why you should never look at something "ugly" and write it off.
It's also an example why as humans we should never, ever look at people who are struggling through life and deem them as hopeless cases. Everyone has a fighting chance. Maybe they're waiting for an encouraging word, a hug, a pointer in the right direction....from someone such as you. Maybe you could inspire the person you just judged and wrote off, to lead their best life ever.

Everyone goes through a hard time.  If you are true to yourself, you have too. And in your lowest time you were hoping someone, anyone, would give you that encouraging nod. You were hoping someone would give you that lending hand. You were hoping that someone would really look at you and see you for the pearl that you knew you were.


Your purpose in life then,  Gace, is to help the oysters realize that they are really pearls on the inside. Your job is to inspire and hearten those shy pearls out of their shell, so they can live life in their inherent shining and beautiful state.



Beautiful pearls.
