We can see things one way, while others can see them a completely different way. It is how we perceive them. By Simonne Liberty.

There is beauty found in the most unexpected places.

you only need to make yourself aware of it

those who live in the slums of a city,

can pass an empty lot full of trash

and only see the trash

others can look upon a single flower

growing among the trash

and only see the flower
