'This Is a Beauty'

Among the hand-made Christmas ornaments, the dozens of photos, & the knick knacks i acquired while in Boise last month, i came across this news clipping i don't remember having seen before.

It's old, quoted from something printed back in 1975...

'This Is a Beauty'

When my daughter started to date we talked about being beautiful. I suggested to her that the truly 'beautiful people' are not necessarily in the jet set but in the soul set. I even suggested several time-tested beauty hints:

• For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
• For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
• For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
• For poise, walk with the knowledge that you will never walk alone.

And one of these days some guy just might say, "Gee, baby, you're beautiful." He might even want to marry you.

Which, i think, are very good points. Something all of us can work on.
