Beauty

You can take no credit for beauty at sixteen. But if you are beautiful at sixty, it will be your own soul’s doing.” ~Marie Stopes

Reality / Realidad

Those who love you are not fooled by mistakes you have made or dark images you hold about yourself. They remember your beauty when you feel ugly; your wholeness when you are broken; your innocence when you feel guilty; and your purpose when you are confused.

African saying

Los que te aman no se dejan llevar por los errores que has cometido o las imágenes oscuras que tienes sobre ti. Ellos recuerdan tu belleza cuando te sientes feo, tu entereza cuando estás quebrado, tu inocencia cuando te sientes culpable y tu propósito cuando estás confundido.
