I looked up into the eyes of my rescuer and was almost too startled to speak.  His eyes were the deepest, most beautiful dark blue eyes I had ever seen.  I felt like I was staring into and past the universe through those eyes, but at the same time, I could see the beauty in simple things: dark wash jeans, a summer night sky.
