This week I have seen such mangled and disturbing pictures of the journey that some women have had to travel to define their own beauty. From the youtube video about Dark Skin women documentary promo or the Girls Rule the World video by Beyonce. I guess in the infamous Oprah quote,” You are worthy because you were born”,it’s just that simple!
The simplicity of these issues is not to say that simple equates easy or effortless. Simple things are like the honest, common sense, natural order of things that we must come back to and embrace. The “simple” gives us a reflection goal so that we can take a look at was has fogged our perseption of our worth and wealth.
The world tries to put beauty in a package and then have you stressed out about having enough money to pay for it. Then the appeal is somehow caught up in social-class, as if the more money you have the better the opportunity you will have to be really beautiful. It’s a lie.
I mean the glitter-beauty is much like the glitter you buy at the craft store, it sparkles, comes in different colors, messy and fun to use. But you compare glitter to the sparkle and shine of the sunlight, it pales in comparison. Our beauty needs to be true and lasting.
Spend time keeping our whole body clean and hydrated (inside and outside), exercising to increase the circulation of our blood, smile. be kind to someone you don’t know, connect with your family and most importantly pray, pray, pray. Give your body the spa treatment with these simple things and your beauty is shining more than just glitter, it will shine like the sun’s light.
