"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

I like quotes.  Especially the simple quotes that are often called cliches.  In the case of this quote it seems all too evident.  As I sit in my living room looking out the window to the beautiful skyline of Chicago, I realize how much I love gazing at this view, but so many people see so much else.  People see crowds, crime, cold, etc...
I see beauty.  I love this city and I love the view that I am all too fortunate to have.  Having written that, I realize the excruciating heart ache that exists in this city as well.  Homelessness, loneliness, heartlessness.  They all exist all too often in this city and every city.  I might try to see if there is something that I can do about that.
