do not let your adornment be merely
outward, arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel-rather
let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a
gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. For this
manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned
themselves…..1 peter 3; 3-5a
Beautiful. It’s a powerful word, one not thrown around as frivolously as
hot, pretty or any of the hundreds of words we’ve come to describe women,
debasing their worth to nothing more than the symmetry of their face and the
fullness of their lips.
It’s a word that holds power and prestige far beyond that of any
other adjective. It’s a sacred word, one kept for those who truly can’t be
described any other way.
It’s a word that chases women to plastic surgery and extreme
diets. It’s the base of all women’s desires and lifelong struggles. But isn’t
beautiful about so much more than looks? Isn’t it in that extra thing — that
thing that makes a woman beautiful instead of hot?
A Beautiful
person, the dictionary tells us, is one who “is delightful to the senses.” But
whose senses? Here is one reason why famine beauty is so hard to define.”Beauty
“depends on who is looking at it.
There are two kinds of women that
men turn to stare at; one is the spectacle, the vision, the production job.
They admire her. But they wouldn’t feel comfortable with her munching apples
beside a fire. The other kind is a girl who has natural loveliness, is
friendly, and looks like the kind of girl who will be more fun to be with.
Harmony of feature is essential to
beauty, but it is only the starting point. I meet ladies everyday by every
standard of measurement, looking gorgeous. They walk as if they are riding a
horse, their voices are shrill, and their minds are shallow.
A beautiful girl has an inner glow. Real
beauty comes from within. Beauty is, but skin deep, this is so true. To my mind
a woman cannot be beautiful unless she is living to the full, is
harmoniously developing all her potentialities, has complete self –confidence,
knows why she is a woman by being respectful, calm, smiles
and acknowledge or appreciate
people without deluding them, even no matter her position and has
achieved an effortless coordination of mind and body.
I have a grudge against Hollywood make-up men;
they wring the naturalness out of a girl and then create a “screen personality”
by building sex and attractiveness into her. But the worst fault of most women
is that they copy styles of hair dos and make- ups they see on other women they
consider beautiful, without regard to how these styles will look on them.
WHAT
THEN IS TRUE BEAUTY?
True
beauty then involves those unique qualities that characterize the image of God.
Peter suggests
There is nothing exclusive about beauty. It is
within potentialities of almost any girl who is not a freak. If a girl has an
appealing personality she doesn’t need any perfect features to be beautiful.
One or two features are enough if everything else is built around them. Eg
respect and humility.
The first thing any woman should do is to
decide what general type she is and style herself accordingly. In what type of
grooming does she fell most at ease, most self-confident? That is probably
where she looks best; and she should not try to be a glamour gal in some other
field.
Here are certain features that most truly
beautiful women have in common: a glow of health; lustrous hair; soft,
modulated voice; easy, confident stride and erect carriage; radiant personality; intellectual
curiosity; integrity and stability of character; complete
self assurance and naturalness.
She
knows how to talk
There’s nothing worse than a
woman who doesn’t know how to use her mouth. A woman who knows how to speak her
mind intelligently, who can captivate you with her words and opinions proves
that there is nothing more beautiful than intelligence. Smart is sexy and words
have the power to turn any girl into the woman of your dreams.
She’s
open
Beautiful women do not limit
themselves. They are open to new ideas, places and people. They do not shy away
from things because of stigmas and fear, they are beautiful in their boldness
and their open minds.
She
bends over backwards
Is there anything more
beautiful than selflessness? Beauty is found in those who care about more than
just themselves.
A truly beautiful woman is
compassionate and caring; she will never hesitate to blow her cover by showing
that she cares. Hot girls play with your heart, beautiful girls mend it.
Her
passions define her more than her looks
There is nothing more
beautiful than a woman with passion. A girl who gets excited about things,
lives for things and holds things close to her heart is a girl worth knowing.
She’s the girl you’d rather
talk to in bed than take to bed. Because passion is contagious and watching
someone get excited about something is the most beautiful quality you can find
in someone.
She’s
got soul
There is such a thing as
people with ugly souls and we’ve all met at least one person who proves it. A
beautiful woman radiates not because of her tinted moisturizer or glossy hair,
but because of that something inside her that just makes you want to be near
her.
People who have “beautiful”
exteriors can begin to look ugly after you get to know them, while someone
with a somewhat “average” face can become the most beautiful person you
know, proving that beauty isn’t just a facade, but an iridescent quality that
is not solely dependent on one’s gene pool.
It’s the quality that
elevates a woman from just hot or sexy. It’s in the way she walks, talks and
presents herself. It’s the way she radiates from the inside, out. It’s her soul
and her spark and that thing you just can’t put your finger on.
It might be the girl you
don’t notice at first, the one who doesn’t always stand out. It’s the girl you
need to get to know, whose beauty becomes more defined with every conversation,
every glance. It’s a word that describes women who can’t be classified as just
hot.
God bless you as you go out and be the beautiful woman...He
[GOD] wants you to be…..!!
This is what makes a
woman beautiful…………………………………..!!!!
