eyes - portal to the soul

What is it about a face, any face, and what attracts our attention to the eyes, the portal to the soul? I've followed Ian Joseph Somerhalder's acting career since he played the bisexual character, Hamilton Fleming, on the WB series, Young Americans, who falls in love with someone he thinks is a guy but actually is a girl. Ian also starred as Paul Denton, also a bisexual character, in the movie The Rules of Attraction. Currently he plays Damon Salvatore on The Vampire Diaries seen on television now. For someone born on December 8, 1978, he's made his mark with a lot of other credits under his belt and certainly worth following. Check him out! - V
