Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Oh Erin honey, all those people are rallying behind you and posting all those beautiful portraits of you on occasion of your birthday!  I'm thinking they did not agree with the photo I chose of you on the greeting I gave.  But really Love, I love that photo.  Yes, I know there are many beautiful photos of you, but that particular one I chose is so endearing to me, it makes me want to squeeze you.  I love that goofy smile.  I've always loved the things about you that no one else pays attention to.  I'm not being calculated.  I really do.

Hmm.  Natty, now that you are in the heart of the fashion industry, I want you to be aware that I am very well known in the fashion biz.  It's not a particularly good reputation.  Let's face it, I have a bad reputation all around.  You got mixed up with a wolf, I'm afraid.  After all, I am much older than you, and in our lives we go about life seeking happiness and happiness in love.  So of course I've screwed up many times.  But YOU are the one I will marry inshaAllah, I want you to be certain of that, and not let the gossip mess with your heart.  My precious Natty.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  Yes, but there's also God given beauty, which is much deeper than perspective.  A truly precious thing indeed.

Oh, I have TWO baby fish, not one!  I'm anticipating a population explosion in my fish tank.
