They said,
"*The most beautiful art is
looking into someone's eyes
when they talk about the
things they love.*"
And I said,
"Or looking at someone you love.
Or maybe, just maybe,
by looking at the mirror
is the *most beautiful art*
anyone *should* appreciate."

When I read this I felt so much love and care it was as if the entire universe was embracing me, whispering sweet and tenderly

It's very hard to love yourself when what you see in the mirror is ugly. Maybe looking into the soul is better than looking into the mirror.  Either way, you posted a thoughtful poem and I thank you for letting me read it.

Truth is, to make it work you must love what you see in the mirror first. Great words!!!

Ironic and profound, he sweeps away all hypocritical rhetoric and calls for a dutiful love for oneself, without which no other love is possible.

They also say that in order to love others one must first learn to love themselves.

What Beauty is? - A Wonder? A Perfection?
What Fullness is? - Reflection or just Look?

This poem hit close to home, with a lot of issues with self-image, and self-love, I can truly say, this poem is BEAUTIFUL!

The sentiment is wonderful and I cherish it. Be mindful, however. For in fact with enough introspection, you will indeed find a light within you that no one can tarnish or take away. I would not recommend looking for what comes past that light.

This feels so profound yet so simple. I always have been fascinated by beauty but passion almost always seems to be beautiful.

Beauty is age perspective but art is what you make of it write in a journal every day and post poetry at night and keep those journals and years later you&#8217;ll have a real work of art your life

emmapeterson

&#8220;You deserve more than the world has to offer&#8221;, those words are so comforting. Self love should be much more normalized, that you for putting it so beautifully

Oh, not sure. Maybe it's best to simply forget yourself and start paying attention to other people. As it's been said, truly beautiful people don't know they're beautiful; they're not self-conscious. Actually, what you propose will have the opposite effect: it will only make you feel MORE INSECURE in the long run - although it may boost your self-esteem initially, like a shot of heroine.
