If you feel pressure to be beautiful, this is for you.
Sometimes I wonder what it’s like to stop people in their tracks with beauty.
The pressure is on to be attractive, smart, funny, sociable, articulate, and giving.
Many of us want to be it ALL.
You may not stop people in their tracks.
Maybe you can’t see it for yourself in the typical mirror.
Your beauty may be learned.
Perhaps people will be drawn to you for reasons they can’t place.
Maybe it’s your drive to serve a purpose.
Maybe it’s your ability to laugh at yourself.
Maybe it’s your passion for your favorite subject.
You don’t have to have the perfect face or perfect body to have beauty.
You don’t have to envy what others have, either.
Work what you have.
Shine like a diamond in your own right.
From my experience, the people I find so beautiful may not even think they are.
Many of them are comparing themselves to others, not realizing what they have.
So, the easiest way to be beautiful is to be the mirror for everyone else.
After all, we can only really be seen by what we see in each other.
As always, it’s your call.
