Be Beautiful, Really Beautiful

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen. – Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Look to your defeats, suffering, struggles and depths and draw meaning and wisdom.

Use the recollection to see how strong you are.

How you improved and grew and sloughed off that which did not serve you.

That’s how you uncover your beauty.
