All Eyes on You


Eyes are the windows of the soul. Lovers gaze longingly into each other's eyes, babies stare at their mothers' faces, and you've all seen sad puppy-dog eyes. There's an eye atop the pyramid on the dollar bill; the ancient Egyptians emphasized their eyes by lining them with kohl. Some people have big, sparkling eyes and we say they're happy and loving. Others have small, squinty eyes and we think they're mean and stingy. Brown-eyed girls seem to be in demand and everybody loves a blue-eyed blonde. My grandma always admired brown eyes and our family had none, so I married a pair and gave her three brown-eyed great grandchildren. Take a minute and gaze into your partner's eyes---you may be pleasantly surprised!
