“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
The perfect message for today. I was just scrolling through my Facebook reading articles on staying young and looking good…and wondering how I can get rid of this belly fat. A good reminder of what real beauty is.
These words resonated with me too, Cecilia. Beauty is coming out of the trenches. We are all guilty of forgetting that sometimes.
This is so wonderful. And the kind of beauty I see through my photography is astounding – so much love and pain and connection and experience.
Your perspective is definitely all-encompassing, Tamara. Pictures definitely capture an added dimension.
Agreed!!
I love this.
