Until u value yourself, u'll not value your beauty. Until u value your beauty, u'll not do anything with it.

I looked in the mirror one day and actually SAW myself. I think about 39 yr's of age. then all the beauty compliments, suddenly occured to me. Dang girl! get out of this boat of depressional hell. Move on! now's your time. Get educated. become an up.standing citizen. Pay you tithes and volunteer. How do you value that?

@Twoinchheels: As human it a natural for us to believe this stereotype even thou its clear that this is jst effect of cultural training. Being old doesnt mean ur not beautiful....no pun intented!

no pun or insult taken. but in my post, I only made a brief comment on my outer beauty, and acknowledged the little things that I can do, thus causing my inter.beauty out shine my dust to dust body. so I ask again? how much is my beauty worth?

U cant put a" price " on that...only you yourself would know! Or if you were in a relationship your partner would know how much your inner or outer beauty would be worth to him!! I know iam priceless...:) cuz there is only one me, and i am the one i choose to be!

@heikeva: very lovely put. @ op. did he not post what should be a seriouse thought provokeing thread ? well, for the moment, it released some mind.numbing stress from this woman's head. Enough that I think I could close my eyes now and rest. That I vaule. Friendships you can build on forum.

@heikeva: well put girl, u chose ur words well bt at the end u read too much.
