Human’s eye is truly a fascinating feature. It is associated with many things, be described in many ways. It conveys a lot of hidden emotions which are not expressed but can be seen by the keen eyes of others. I’ve heard numerous times that if you want to know whether someone is being frank or not, you could stare into his or her eyes and know the truth.
A classic example is when you see someone you like, you can’t hide the twinkles in your eyes or when a person is giving their full concentration, you’d be able to witness a very intense gaze from them. When a person is talking about his or her passion for example food or football, the mere mention of their favourite topic would brighten up their face hence you could see their eyes wide open, bigger than usual. However if you see someone with half-closed eyes and you got a blank stare from someone, it signifies that only the physical body of that person is there, but the mind is elsewhere.
At another instance, when you look at two people who are madly in love with each other, you would instantly notice at how they are looking at one another. It’s like as if their eyes are the ones communicating with non-spoken words. There is no denying that you could literally see love in their eyes because they are really into each other. Well I have almost forgotten what it’s like. It would be totally awesome to have such mutual feeling towards another person, right? For those out there who have found their soul-mates or their other-halves…you’re SO lucky. How I wish I would find mine too. Perhaps…perhaps…perhaps ;)
Anyway what happened recently was an eye-opener, it was incredible. Last week I was teaching in class as usual, and then I suddenly noticed there was this one student, who was giving his full attention to what I was teaching. What was so distinctive about him was his eyes. Previously the boy always had this sad-looking face, bored-looking eyes but that day it was different. I mean he had these glowing eyes that were like smiling, full of life and very alive. It’s like sincere fondness, very genuine and innocent. It definitely put things into perspective for me, now the term ‘smiling eyes’ makes complete sense to me.
It was great to know that you could evoke such emotions from someone. Knowing that you could make someone really happy is like a boost to your own self-esteem. It makes you feel good about yourself and makes your day a little happier too. It truly made me realised that it is so, so true that 'eyes is just like the windows to one’s heart'.
So, the next time I come into contact with someone, I’ll pay more attention to their eyes. If their eyes are ‘alive’ and their face lights up…it means they are at ease with me. If they’re not, it’s ok…no harm done. It is still good to be able to know and be aware of it...
Another lesson learned, another experience gained. Alhamdulillah… \(^-^)/
