Scientists once did a study where the only feature of a person”s face you could see were their eyes. The goal was to see if the person viewing the eyes could guess the emotion. Sure enough, the results were staggering and people accurately guessed far more often than not. Perhaps this lends credence to the saying about being the window to our soul. You be the judge.
