“Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful, for beauty is God’s handwriting.”
As spring peeks around the corner, so do endless opportunities to experience beauty at its finest. As the snow melts, the grass “greens” and flowers begin to bloom. The transition alone is breathtaking. There is a light, fresh scent in the atmosphere, a gentle breeze in the air and the sun peaks with a delicate glow. All the changes in the environment refresh the mind, body and soul of women everywhere and there is a sort of trickle down affect that induces a change in our own appearances.
I’ve noticed that everything about a woman becomes more feminine as the weather breaks. The make-up gets lighter– softer colors, shimmer foundation and lip gloss instead of opaque lipstick. Much of the red nail lacquer is replaced with sweet pinks, lavenders and ice blues. And we trade in the gray and navy blue sweaters for funky green and spunky pink blazers and airy dresses.
I’ve always been able to recognize beauty in other women. I notice great hair and skin, a woman’s sense of style and the way she carries herself with confidence and grace. Although I don’t always express a compliment, I have a great respect and appreciation for the beauty of a woman. As an exercise in self esteem, take the time to enjoy all of the springtime scenery; the weather, the plant life and the beauty of the human race. The ability to recognize the beauty of another woman without feeling threatened or intimidated is a sure signed of inner security.
Take it all in!
