Beauty from Within...

by Audrey Hepburn

For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry

People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed. Never throw out anybody. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands - one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

The beauty of a woman is not the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows. And the beauty of a woman only grow with passing years.

We can only hope!

Liked the part about living long enough to discover you have 2 hands. That's a good one and I find, quite true.
