Beauty!

Beauty is more than skin deep I often hear!  Let's examine this statement, just exactly what does this statement imply? 

One definition states "Beauty is more than skin deep means a person can be beautiful inside and out." 

Another definition states "It also means that inside of every beautiful person is something better that should be noticed more than their looks. Looks are good but personality is better.

Still another adjective implies, "Not deep or lasting; superficial:  used to say that a person's character is more important than how they look. 

I beg to differ.  I want to combine all these definitions so that we're able to see what "Beauty" really entails.  To see Beauty is one thing, to speak Beauty is another, but to feel Beauty is the "Ultimate" way of expressing Beauty in my humble opinion!

One of my favorite quotes by Kahlih Gibran sums it up perfectly for me!

On Beauty 
Kahlil Gibran

Where shall you seek beauty, and how shall you find her unless she herself be your way and your guide?  And how shall you speak of her except she be the weaver of your speech?

Beauty is therefore skin deep and it does show on one's personality and is often defined in one's character. To express communication with love will help us to choose our words carefully.  We learn to be grateful that we exist in this world to express love and to share our experiences kindly.

It does not mean to ignore or to be ignorant of world news.  But we could gently and kindly express these generalities with loving words. To listen and respond with kind, positive words first, then perhaps gently share your opinion does get easier each time we practice!

What a lovely statement.  In focusing on positive outcomes in the trials and tribulations in Life, we could assist and inspire all our fellow brothers in this wonderful world that we live in.  What a beautiful Purpose? Don't you think!

Fragrance of Loving!

Fragrance of Loving! I sometimes get a swift smell of the fragrance of loving .  My heart opens wide and there is not a thing in sight that I'm not in love with.  These moments are however:  very fleeting!  It comes and goes and some moments are so intense that all I see is my own volatile state. Today is a day of beauty!  I feel and taste the sweet scent of life.  I wish that this day, this moment, this second could last forever.  I wonder why this feeling is so intense at times and lesser at other times.  I noticed that when I try to recapture these moments on my own accord, I feel uneasy and unnatural. Then one sweet morning, I awaken to such "LOVE" and "KNOWING" that it's almost impossible to describe!  I get the sense that if only this would last forever.  If only I could share with all the people that I encounter, for we are all brothers and sisters.  But words won't come, opportunities are stifled and the moment passes. I'

Balance!

Balance I have a mentor that has taught me a valuable lesson.  She was having brain surgery and the scheduled operation was a month away.  Can you imagine that!  There was a lot of undue stress in that waiting period. She decided that she had nothing to lose and everything to gain if she would start having a relationship with God.  She didn't know where to begin because her life was focused on a successful career and God wasn't included.  So she simply PRAYED!   She reached out into nothingness and decided to have faith that God heard her. She decided there was a reason she was having this experience. The foundation of her life was shaken to the core. It was time to slow down and prioritize her life because there may not be more time for her.  She wanted to start Anew. Balance became the topic that occupied her mind.  She bought a planner and set new goals.  Goals that would have meaning--such as including FAMILY into her busy work schedule. She set time schedul
