Wildly Convinced That You Are Uncommonly Beautiful



"When did we see each other face-to-face? 

Not until you saw into my cracks and I saw into yours. 

Before that, we were just looking at ideas of each other, 

like looking at your window shade but never seeing inside. 

But once the vessel cracks, the light can get in.

 The light can get out."


 John Green, Paper Towns



This TEDtalk takes a metaphor and turns it into something spectacular. A woman who is convinced that there is beauty, there is absolute and unadulterated beauty in all persons chases the essence of humanity and catches it's corner; what connects us, moves us, what makes us not only human, but humankind.
