You're beautiful....

Tuesday for Young Women's we had a WONDERFUL sister, Tami Link from our ward come and talk to the girls on beauty inside and out. It was a FABULOUS lesson and one I think we all enjoyed. I know I did. It was a GREAT reminder that if we don't have a kind heart no amount of makeup applied or expensive or stylish clothes worn will make us beautiful. Beauty comes from within and even the most plain person becomes beautiful when their hearts are full of love and kindness. She then shared a VERY cute handout she had prepared, a list of beauty tips from Audrey Hepburn.
She also gave this quote, which I ABSOLUTELY love:
If happiness is the most attractive accessory--then a genuine smile is the best lip gloss.

Beauty Tips
By Audrey Hepburn

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 or her fingers
through it once a day.

For poise, Walk with the knowledge you’ll never
walk alone.

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

Remember, If you ever need a helping hand, you’ll
find one at the end of your arm.

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

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she
wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she
combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her
eyes, Because that is the doorway to her heart, the
the place where love is.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, But
true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.

It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion
that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with
passing years—only grows!


Thank you Tami for such an AWESOME lesson!

You are not only beautiful on the outside, but also a GREAT example of inner beauty!
