Media has destroyed the idea of beauty! We've been deluded into thinking that being beautiful is only about how one looks. It is so much more than that. For our grandparents and great-grandparents beauty was about health, kindness, and vitality. We've watched it slowly become about body parts, crudeness, and lust. Like our food, beauty has become cheap, unhealthy, and it has a bitter aftertaste.

Let's return to the beauty of the past. Let's celebrate and reward loyalty, health, and energy.

Beauty is a choice. It's about caring for yourself and others. My friend Hilary Weeks taught me to not worry about what others think of me, but to worry about what they think of themselves when they're with me. It really changed the way I spoke to others. Choose to be beautiful!
