Thought Thursday: Sarah's Sayings

This weeks Thought Thursday is one of Sarah's Sayings. I love inspirational quotes and during this segment I will share some of my favourites. This one is from a letter Sam Levenson wrote his granddaughter Georgia when she was born.

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.

People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives and the passion that she shows.

The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.

-Sam Levenson

Many think that Audrey Hepburn wrote this quote, however she didn't. She only repeated these beauty tips in public and was always careful to credit the author. It was even recited by her son at her funeral.
