Life isn’t meant to be lived perfectly…but merely to be LIVED. Boldly, wildly, beautifully, uncertainly, imperfectly, magically LIVED.

There are some places in life where you can only go alone. Embrace the beauty of your solo journey.

There is no model, no actress, no Miss America contender that can outshine a happy, confident, secure woman.

Outer beauty pleases the EYE. Inner beauty captivates the HEART.

Maybe it’s NOT Maybelline. Maybe you were just born with it.

There is nothing more beautiful than someone who goes out of their way to make life beautiful for others.

Consider the fact that maybe…just maybe…beauty and worth aren’t found in a makeup bottle, or a salon-fresh hairstyle, or a fabulous outfit. Maybe our sparkle comes from somewhere deeper inside, somewhere so pure and authentic and REAL, it doesn’t need gloss or polish or glitter to shine.

You’re beautiful, just the way you are. Shine on. And dare anyone to turn off the lights.

But in the midst of all that uncertainty and lack of clarity, there lies a wild beauty. A hope. Possibility. The promise of something bigger than us happening just beneath the surface that we can’t see.
