Beautiful dove eyes.....

.....brooding in pain.
Isn't it sounding symphonic when you hear the word "Dove Eyes". I used to wonder why the human eyes were compared to the eyes of a bird so innocent, Dove, by some historic writers. The bird, Dove, signifies peace and tranquility; this was the bird our ancestors once used like a peace messenger. It was one of the means of communication then and people used to send or receive messages through this bird, which means it is considered to be
trustworthy. It is trustworthy because this bird has a divine virtue to keep its eyes focused on one particular goal; its eyes always stay fixed on only one thing until it is done. And no matter how far the destination is and how difficult the journey is, it would make sure it travels so far to pass on the message, but would never turn back. So i think when those writers described the the human or human eyes in comparison to those of Dove, they must've imagined the eyes of a human to be so trustworthy and focused; or probably they must've either encountered a human who was so just like a bird, Dove. Whatever the case may be, the bird is angelic, divine and pure in heart which reflects in its eyes.

The point is : Is there any chance my eyes can be described so? I'd definitely would like someone to praise my eyes, calling them "Beautiful Dove Eyes", but do i have that pleasant nature in me to be called so? Are my eyes really so righteously aligned toward my destination, like Dove? I am afraid i don't, becasue i have no serenity in me. I lost that beauty of innocence when the iniquity and malice hovered me, and when i was a victim of my pride and arrogance. When i see any kind of pain or trouble on my way and if i find the destined path to be so far, like a traitor i forget my morals and turn back. My eyes aren't trustworthy, they are not focused, and and they just can't stand any trouble along the path. So my eyes turned brooding becasue they are not worthy to stand in comparison to those of Dove in anyway. But i don't need to be worried because i haven't yet lost the chance for my eyes to be called, "Beautiful Dove Eyes" and, i hope to make myself blend into the character of such a wonderful bird.

  3. I think most adults have lost somrthing where they can have "dove eyes". Maybe it's just part of the experience we have to go through.

  8. This is an interesting post and beautiful analogy. I agree that you must forgive yourself and strive to be the person who emulates "dove eyes." It's possible... also think more highly of yourself and your progress. By recognizing the lack you're already one step closer to being dove-like.
