What is beautiful? Is it smooth and flawless skin? Or does it have wrinkles...... laugh lines? Furrows and divots that suggest tears and laughter and living?
What is beautiful? Is it shiny, silky hair perfectly groomed? Or is it a mound piled atop a head bent low. Scrubbing toilets. Emptying trash. Wiping noses. Wild and messy.....Is that beautiful?
What is beautiful? Is it perfect words and eloquent prose? Is it knowing the right answer.....Every. Single. Time. Or is it broken? Is it real? Is it lost and empty and needing help....is it not quite all together.....
What is beautiful? The perfect outfit. The coordinating jewelry and shoes? Or is beauty displayed on the tattered T-shirt. Spattered with a remnants of life.....dirt, waste, stains.....
Is living beautiful or just looking?
Is working beautiful or just buying?
Is serving beautiful or just pampering?
Is beauty skin deep or is it perhaps deeper?
What is beautiful?
