you know how they say 'eyes are the window to the soul' all the time? i don't know who 'they' are but it is said alot and i often wonder about it. i've been paying attention to eyes lately. in part because i simply find eyes lovely to watch -- how they move, roll, widen, close...
i am also deeply fascinated by the look in one's eye. what does it mean? is their look connected to how they feel at that moment? are eyes responding to an emotion or leading one? are eyes governed by the head or the heart or a little mixture of both?
we talk of seeing love in one's eyes. or maybe anxiety. but is it possible to see trust -- actual trust -- reflected in one's eyes? or perhaps mercy?
while i think hands remain my favorite human feature, eyes just might be next in line. eyes are simply memorable in a way i cannot describe. even the eyes of those i've loved and lost remain with me. and for that, i wonder how close i am to their soul...?

Stumbled upon this gem of a blog, and I'll be around to check in. I know what you mean when it comes to someone's eyes, at times full of wonder or sorrow; always engaging in some way. They never lie.
