This is very interesting. When I thought of the word Beauty this morning, it was in the context of being beautiful. That is because I felt the very opposite of Beauty today. I felt like a frump! And that made me act like a frump. And as I was sitting in my desk, think about how un-beautiful I was, I started to wonder what beauty actually was. I mean, I've always thought of beauty as physical character. But today, I realized that it isn't just physical. Beauty is a state of mind. Beauty is an attitude. Rebecca Kind Dremen ( a beauty pageant judge) said that; "You can put a Miss America in a room with a group of other attractive women and you'll find you will know exactly who she is. It's almost like a magnet. There is an inner beauty, an inner glow."
Beauty isn't just attractiveness, it's deeper. That's why you should always walk around like you are the most beautiful women in the world, because you can't always fix a bad hair day or a bad outfit, but you can always fix your attitude.
