Beauty Beyond Beauty

The word Beauty, if capitalized, is a synonym for God , said the naturalist John Muir. He referred to the Beauty of Nature. One woman who also understood the true meaning of beauty was Audery Hepburn.
   She often quoted this poem  called "Time Tested Beauty Tips,"  written by Sam Levinson.

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.

People, even 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 in the clothes she wears, the  figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but 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 with passing years only grows!

Audrey Hepburn worked  not only in the glitz of Hollywood , but also as a UNICEF ambassador in the hunger-torn landscape of Somalia and bringing love to the hungry and forsaken children of Ethiopia.

  Although admired by millions for her acting role, she struggled with personal love until her last marriage. Here is a beautiful film of her reading from the book The Diary of Anne Frank. 

When you contemplate beauty, says Anne Frank, you cannot be unhappy.

Think of all the beauty that's still left in and around you and be happy.
