I mean you, not Holly, though she is pretty cute as well.
You deserve to hear "Hello, Beautiful!" every day.
Why? Well, my guess is you've done one (or more) of the following today:
- made a meal for someone,
- tied little shoes,
- wiped up the kitchen floor,
- listened while someone shared,
- smiled at a person you didn't know,
- figured out a way to help.
These are the actions of a beautiful person.
Our kindness makes us beautiful.
Want to know why I say Hello, Beautiful! to myself every morning? Because I'm good at loving people. I can pack a fantastic school lunch for a rower...a work of art, right?
And help an awesome, funny kid like this grow up into a good MAN....
You may think you have a little too much of this or too little of that to ever call yourself beautiful. If that's you, it's time to sing a new song.
Life is short and you are kind. Me too: I'm kind. And yes, I have abs of chocolate (not steel). But I don't think you give a toss about that and, honestly, neither do I. I'm the kind of friend you'll have fun drinking margaritas with; I will bring you chocolate cake and even homemade ice cream.
I am so much more than how I look. You are, too. Maybe it's time to see who you really are and say Hello, Beautiful.
As my hilarious runner-friend Robyn said at training one morning:
Me either.
So...Hello, Beautiful. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, being imperfectly, perfectly YOU.
