It takes a brave person to love with their heart
Instead of their eyes.

What the heart sees is real, it’s true and pure.
What the eyes see are an illusion.
Sometimes we only see what we want to see.

When two hearts connect, it’s like magic.
Nothing can come between the connection,
Not ethnicity, religion, size, shape, or flaws of any kind.

When a fool loves, their eyes see the other person
As a fantasy, something they believe is real but isn't.

When a wise man loves, their heart gives in to
The other person’s soul. The heart pleasures
From the other person’s kindness and loving personality.

An individual’s true attractiveness lies not in their eyes,
Smile or body. But instead it lies beneath their
Skin.

People shouldn't base their love off of someone based on their looks, love is being able to look past physical features and look deep into the inner beauty.
