true beauty
"True beauty is like hummingbirds singing,
or the sound of children's laughter.
True beauty is like the pitter patter of rain falling,
or the sight of the sunset.
True beauty is like water flowing swiftly against the shore,
or trees swaying slowly.
True beauty
is found within."
True beauty is like a burning candle. It is beautiful itself but when it lights up it makes other things beautiful too.
"I believe true beauty is like a piece of painted art work, the intercourse of colors, the primary, into the secondary, the pale and the bright, the hues and gradients, palettes of natural and earthy colors all find meaning on one rough surface of canvas;"
