I feel most beautiful when people can truly see me and all the good in me. When they look past my faults and imperfections and appreciate my gifts and talents. I feel most beautiful when someone says thank you, when I speak encouragement, and when I'm given a "real" hug. I can't help smiling when I'm kissed on the forehead, and when a baby falls asleep in my arms, I feel radiant.
To me, what a person wears doesn't make them beautiful. Clothing and outward appearance in no way defines beauty. All it can do is enhance the beauty that is already within. Confidence is beauty. Being confident in yourself is one thing that can be strengthened by feeling good about your outward appearance.
One of my goals in life is to always see and appreciate the good in others. But even more than that, I want to be able to draw out and magnify the exceptional and admirable things about those people I come in contact with. Whether it be through words of encouragement, a kind gesture, or merely helping reconstruct their wardrobe, everyone should be able to recognize the beauty within themselves.
So again I ask... what makes you feel beautiful?
