The Most Beautiful Thing Hoping to paint the most beautiful thing in the world, an artist asked three people what they thought it might be. Faith, replied the clergyman, you ll find it at every altar. Love, said a young bride. Love builds poverty into riches, it sweetens tears, makes much of little. Without it there is no beauty.
Peace is the most beautiful thing in the world, answered a weary soldier.
War is ugly. Wherever you find peace, you find beauty. Entering his door the artist saw faith in the eyes of his children and love in the eyes of his wife. And in his home, he saw the peace that love and faith had built. So he painted the most beautiful thing in the world.
