Beauty Within

Beauty lies within, but where does within lie? I see myself over and over again in the mirror. I see-and yet sometimes the woman I see is no longer the woman in me. I see all the burdens, the pain and the strife- I see life’s faults, and they’re never really nice. I see the problems the hurt the pain, I see how my body has paid the price for them. The sins I have committed, or times I have been wrong, have been abuse to my body-my temple of God.

I see my outside so blemished and flawed, I pick out my problems, and dwell on them all. But beauty lies within; at least that’s what they say. So who is the inner beauty, the biggest question of them all, and how can I be beautiful if I am not sure at all.

Where does it begin and where does it end is the question of splendor, the confidence of a woman, is her immortal beauty – her love of God, herself, her man, her incredible humanity, her zest for life, her sense of humility, her never ending mystery, her struggle to fight, her sense of right, her sense of wrong, her inner strength, and everlasting will – it is what makes a woman beautiful when the outside won’t reveal.

She may never divulge the secrets of all that is within, but in her eyes you will see the strength of beauty within. The exquisite depth of all she has to offer, the incredible loveliness that you can’t find in another, the attraction is delicate- the imperfection unique, in those eyes you may one day find everything you seek.

The ability to see the beauty within is a rare gift indeed. The opportunity of a lifetime, combined with a moment of truth, a rare disclosure of things yet to come, and see changes in you. The true love from a woman can never be replaced, once you have experienced her love your memory will recall – the true beauty in the heart of a woman.
