Time-tested Beauty

It's raining heavily now and I guess the weather made me more sentimental to bring you back to the past haha...:)

I have been into old movies lately and my favorite actress is Audrey Hepburn ^_^ Yes, I have heard about her name but didn't know much about her life. It turned out that she is not only one of the most elegant and talented actress of all time, she is also an outstanding mother who always put her children first and a very passionate humanitarian too. Although her life is full of obstacles and challenges, she always look at the positive side and live life to the fullest.

Love her in Sabrina, Breakfast at Tiffany's and Funny Face.



Let me share with you one of her favourite poems which she loves reading to her children:

Time Tested Beauty Tips
--Sam Levenson


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 you'll never walk alone.

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

Remember, If you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.

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 that 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 mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!

Isn't it a beautiful poem?


Quote of the Day:

I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles

~Audrey Hepburn
