Time Tested Beauty Tips


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!


7 years ago, I discovered this tips, or poem as you may call. I would write this poem over and over again in every book that I have. It came to point where I could remember the lines by heart.

It is a beautiful poem of what and how a woman's beauty should be.

The author of the above poem is Sam Levenson (December 28, 1911-August 27, 1980), an American humorist, writer, television host and journalist. Sam Levenson wrote "Time Tested Beauty Tips" for his grandchild. However, the poem soon became falsely attributed to Audrey Hepburn.

Contrary to many internet postings and email-go-rounds, Audrey Hepburn didn't write this lovely poem. The poem was mis-attributed to her because she often quoted it and had read it to her children.

This is a great poem and it's inspirational.


* She sure is pretty, isn't she?
