Lift not the painted veil...

... which those call life though unreal shapes be pictured there, and they but mimic all we could believe!
 
Just finished watching the Painted Veil which had breathtaking scenery and a lush score.  However, the true beauty of the story was in the lives of two people, husband and wife, who learn to stop expecting each other to be something they are not and come to love each other.
 
How often do we waste our time and efforts in trying to get others to do or be what we want them to be?  The real joy comes in discovering who another person is and being a witness to their life's journey.
