A dear old lady was asked what she used to make her complexion so beautiful and her whole being so bright and attractive.
She answered:
"I use for my lips. . . truth
I use for my voice . . kindness
I use for my ears . . compassion
I use for my hands . . charity
I use for my figure . . uprightness
I use for my heart . . love
I use for any who do not like me . . prayer."
Reminding you, that while we all appreciate outside beauty, what really counts is the true inner beauty of a each person.

Another great post to make us realize that beauty lies within.
Oh, dear Patty--that is such a wonderful description of beauty.
(((hugs))) I think you and my darling Mumsie are every bit of this kind of genuine beauty.

Yes, wonderful words. The hard part is living them. :=}
Inner beauty - an invisible visible jewelery. Very well said by the lady. In the end what matters is personality that is respected because of goodness.
Thanks for sharing.
Great words. Lovely post :0)
Happy day to you.
Dear Patty ~~ Lovely post that I have copied to keep. Really nice.
It is great that your niece is doing so well and hope she continues to recover fully.
Thanks for your comments and I also
found that quiz came to 9 every time and that unlikely choice of movie.I went to a second doctor today and she ordered more blood tests and an 'echo' of my heart, so we will see if that helps, and I am a bit better anyway, thanks
to cooler weather. Take great care
dear friend. Love, Merle.
