Pages...

Since I finally decided to take the steps in fulfilling what has been inside me for so long, to be true to myself, I had to open the book of my soul and decide I was finally ready to take that step…to complete the novel. All of the people I have met made me realize that I am beautiful in my own right, even with my extra pounds and wrinkles..they have infused me with more confidence then I have ever had in my 50 yrs. It is a place where no judges you, whether your beautiful or not, slender or large, tall or short…none of the above matter. It has always been the person inside that mattered, who I was and how I came to be. We are like books on a shelf, we wander through the library and of course the cover catches our eye…we stop and take a look…peruse the outside to see if what is inside might hold our interest. Everyone is beautiful in their own way on the outside, just like a book we catch people’s interest…but it is the pages in between that really count.
We open the book to start from the beginning, like getting to know someone, and if said pages catch our interest we move along. But the pages are most the important part of the book we show the world, our beauty is on the inside. Of how we treat people, where we have taken ourselves to make us the person we have become and the capacity inside of us, for love we hold for ourselves and others. We must all love ourselves first before we can be loved, to know that we are all beautiful no matter what the covering and if someone does not look beneath the cover to the words and pages beneath…don’t put forth the time or effort to get to know them. If they are so shallow that the outside is all that matters to them, they are not worthy of finding the beautiful pages inside of you.
"She was beautiful,
but not like those girls in the magazines."
"She was beautiful,
for the way she thought."
"She was beautiful, for that sparkle
in her eyes when she talked about
something she loved."
"She was beautiful, for her
ability to make other people smile
even if she was sad."
"No, she wasn't beautiful for something
as temporary as her looks."
"She was beautiful,
deep down in her soul."
