Have I told you lately

I always wondered how THIS could be beautiful.
that you're beautiful?

I have been talking to a few friends.
They called me "beautiful."
All at different times.
One more than others.
This sort of friend doesn't casually
throw around the word "beautiful."
Not like girls do, anyway.
I got to thinking...
What is beauty?
So I looked it up.
dictionary.com states
beau·ty [byoo-tee]
noun, plural beau·ties.
1. the quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind, whether arising from sensory manifestations (as shape, color, sound, etc.), a meaningful design or pattern, or something else (as a personality in which high spiritual qualities are manifest).

personality. Ohhh, yeah.

I had always thought beauty looked like this:---->
The big eyes. Flawless skin. Perfect hair. Perfect shape.
perfect. perfect. perfect.
perfection: the world's disgusting definition of beauty.

Thank you, Worldly Society
for being so, utterly wrong.



I am found beautiful by a very best friend.
and nothing the world does can change that.

When was the last time you told someone they were truly
Beautiful?
