I have always adored the lyrics to this song. Sometimes I have sung it as if it were about a particular person I was not viewing in the ‘best light’ :) and many times I’ve sung it as if it were me singing to me.
See me beautiful,
look for the best in me.
That’s what I really am,
and all I want to be.
It may take some time
It may be hard to find,
but see me beautiful.
See me beautiful,
each and every day.
Could you take a chance?
Could you find a way?
To see me shining through
in everything I do
and see me beautiful.
~ by Kathy and Red Grammer
~awwww~ me too! Ever since I was little…
…I remember sitting in the car, listening to it as we were driving somewhere… and imagining that someone could see the true, deep beauty within me…
see the ‘truest version’ of me ~ the Love.
I have shared this song several times since, with those whom I imagine would benefit from hearing it. And see *themselves* more ‘beautifully’; Lovingly, sweetly. Embracingly.

oh wow, thank you SO MUCH for that link! And I love that you’ve been loving this song ever since you were little. It spoke to your heart even then! Wonderful, thank you again.
I was looking through some of your older blogs and came across this. I love the simplicity of the thought. Yes, if only I could be seen beautiful all the time then the ugliness would fade.
Thank you Beth.
