BORN BEAUTIFUL!

I was going to begin by saying Beauty is not born, it is created, but then I thought again.  Actually, we are born beautiful!  God...The Master...so beautifully and wonderfully made us and that's the beginning and end of it.  As infants...no one even considers challenging this notion.  As young children we are able to hold on this reality; young children are still yet beautiful. As time goes on however...the older we get...shamefully and sorrowfully... we are robbed of our identity and sense of "being beautiful just as God made us."  Beginning with our families and then through the culture, society and humanity that we all abide in, our natural God given beauty becomes increasing diminished and corroded.  The vicissitudes and hardness of life and "socialization" soon has us questioning God's creation mandate.  This condition grows, festers and becomes full blown.  It's only by a "rebirth" that we can reclaim and re-establish that we are beautif

Beauty: Weather Report

When most people think about Beauty they immediately think about physical beauty; appearance, looks.  Basically, what they see with their eyes.  Beauty is SO much more than  physical appearance.  If you research  various aspects or definitions of Beauty,  you will often find reference to a "radiance".  Beauty has everything to do with "an aura", "an atmosphere", "a presence", "a field" and most definitely "a Spirit".  Some even say that they actually see the radiant light surrounding "a beautiful person."  Many of the principles that we deal with as human beings are often so far removed and lofty.  One of my purposes in communicating with you, is to take information and make it practical, functional and useful. So  take note that I will always try to "break it down" or "keep it real".   So let's break this down and put it on the court so that we can understand what the ancients and mys

'BE" Beautiful

One of the smallest yet most powerful words ever spoken in Life is a little two letter word, the word 'BE".  In the beginning, at the very creation of life, God said "let there BE ..."  Closely  related, just as small, but nowhere as powerful are the words,  "I" and "Me".   BE is a call into existence; it brings forth something from nothing.  It is cause; it causes things to "be-come".  Two of the most important BE's ever created  are "human "BE"ings" and "BE"auty.  Some time ago, I observed and understood that the single most important thing in the word and element of "beauty" is the word BE.  Beauty literally and figuratively begins with "BE" and describes a state of being.   Beauty is and has always been captivating, elusive, mysterious and eternally sought after.  I have come to find that Beauty is most evident, most reflected and most manifested as the essence of being that exud
