The Best and Most Beautiful Things in the World



"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched."

Helen Keller
The most beautiful things in the world you cannot see or touch. These things must be felt with the heart meaning, love is the most beautiful thing in the world.
Helen Keller inspired and motivated many people. She was famous for her many achievements. She was blind and deaf because of a childhood illness, but the love and caring of her teacher helped her overcome many obstacles in her life even though she couldn't see or hear.
Helen did not have to see or hear to know that the love and caring from people in her life was the most important thing. She was living proof that if you have the love and support of someone who loves you, it can get you through the hard times in your life. I feel the same way.
I feel sorry for anyone who is alone and doesn't have anyone special in their life to love or to be loved by. I am so lucky to have the love of my husband who, I believe, is my soul mate, and the special love of my kids and grandkids. These are the most beautiful things to me.

alot of people think that the best things in life are things that you can buy, or money itself. I have never been materialistic and i feel that the best things in life are free. A hug, kiss, or even a smile or an i love you from my children is better than all the money in the world. I could never do what i do if it werent for them, they may be small but they have gotten me through so much!

I agree because just like they say beauty is skin deep and it’s what’s on the inside not the out side.
