As I get older...

Reflections

 have realized its whats on the inside that counts....
I have seen many who at first this world would consider ugly....
I have gotten to know them and found they are the most beatiful ppl ive ever met...
I have also seen those who are exquzite in the worlds eyes....
I have gotten to know them and they are the grosses creatures ive seen...

So as you are putting on that mask every morning called makeup.....
So as you skip another meal to lose that weight you think is so necisarry to loose..
So as you look in the mirror and dont like what you see.....
So as you carry about with these shallow things.....

Remember....
beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Beauty comes from within
its what inside that counts not the outside
Old sayings you have heard but not listened...
The wisest things youll ever come to know...
Take them to heart and grow

This is a very true poem, a lesson all could gain to remember. And it reminds me of one of my favorite books: Skin.
