Beautiful Woman Month


To all my friends and readers and critics and family: If you're a woman, this is for you. Written by Audrey Hepburn and read at her funeral. It says a lot and is worth reading and thinking about! Enjoy.

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 beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone...

People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed;
Never throw out anyone.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others.




And your hint for this weekend?
Take a walk
Kick up the leaves
Think
Pick up a leaf
Pick up a whole bunch of them
Lie in the leaves
Thank God for life.



Quote? I love so many, it's hard to choose, but here goes with another good one:
