Beauty

Beauty is in the eye of the 'beer holder'. One of my favorite silly t-shirts from years ago.

Beauty is a truly interesting thing. So many folks chase the ideological IMAGE of beauty. They have surgeries and procedures and tucks and trims and wraps and more things than I'm probably aware of done to themselves in the endless pursuit of trying to be the essence of what they DEEM to be beautiful.

Being so passionate about the care and support of sick children and people, I sometimes get a little nutty that folks will spend $5,000 or more on procedures to enhance themselves for some ridiculous NOTION of what they once were, or hope to be. Do they not realize what $5,000 could do for an ill child? Dear Lord!

Here's an idea . . .

Get off your couch. Take a walk. Hula-hoop (I have a neighbor who literally lost like 80+ pounds hula-hooping!). Do squats while you're cooking. Lunges during laundry. Plank yourself to perfection. There is just a myriad of things that you can do, without spending a fortune, to improve how you look and feel. Have more veggies. Eat more fruit. Get rid of the junk food, cookies, chips, and soda. When the cravings come, have a giant glass of ice cold water!

The absolute best procedure you can do is to stare at yourself in the mirror and develop a little self confidence. Self confidence is the most attractive quality a person can have. When YOU believe in the beauty of YOUR self, others will flock to the charisma that eminates from you. When YOU believe in the beauty of YOUR features, others will find you more appealing. When YOU believe in the beauty that YOU possess, it will be natural for others to see it too.

How can anyone see how awesome you are if you cannot see it yourself?

You are beautiful! Made perfectly, exactly how you are! Each of us offers something uniquely unblemished and pristine. You'll never be a wonderful replica of someone else.

Be Beautiful You!
