I posted this about 8 months ago and have been thinking alot about the subject latly so decided to re-post it...
Beauty, they say, is in the eye of the beholder. Is that true? Then why do most of us tend to think of "beautiful" women being only those that are tall, thin, young, big breasted, with full lips, high cheek bones, large eyes and flowing long hair? Here is a video clip that I stumbled across that I found very profound and truly eye opening....
I have a bad habit of comparing myself with other women. After having 3 beautiful children, I am no longer the cute skinny bubbly twenty something that I once was. I've had to learn to be secure in who I am today. I may not be content with my outside appearance but I would never go back to the girl I once was….I have grown on the inside and I am happy with who god has made me. To me, a beautiful person is kind and sincere. A person who believes in thinking before talking, who believes in treating others as they want to be treated. To me, true beauty is not about HOW a person looks; but how they carry themselves and how they treat others. To me, a beautiful person has morals, is humble and respectful and genuinely cares about other people. What is beauty? True Beauty to me it has nothing to do with your physical appearance…It’s what's found on the inside, what's in your heart.

Hey! I love this video. Amazing what they do to make people look 'beautiful'. I agree - i may not look like i used to, but i'd never go back. I'm so much wiser now!
And sure - share my interview with Jess with your book club. Beware - the book sometimes has a raunchy sense of humor, but it is a great summer read!
I needed that today since the jeans I wore right after I had Alex not longer fit...SCARY!!!
Good to know that you think I am beautiful...lol
I love that....so true! Our version of beauty is so distorted these days. That is a great video! I didn't think she looked that bad before though!
I like the video and it is so true. We are all beautiful in our own way. Life's experiences and trials make us even more beautiful if we allow them to..LOL Heather
