I believe in sleeping in. I believe in giving 100% when you only have 80. I believe in love, arguing, and jamming out by yourself in the car. I believe in kisses on the forehead. I believe in long kisses, smiling till your cheeks hurt, and laughing until you cry. I believe in having someone tell you that you’re beautiful. I believe in having someone play with your hair. I believe in swinging on swings and running in the rain. I believe in miracles and random acts of kindness.I believe in saying hello to anyone and everyone. I believe in second chances, and I believe in passion.
Laughter is beautiful. Kindness is beautiful. Cellulite is beautiful. Softness and plumpness and roundness are beautiful. It’s more important to be interesting, to be vivid, and to be adventurous, than to sit for pictures. A woman’s soft tummy is a miracle of nature. Beauty comes from tenderness. Beauty comes from variety, from specificity, from the fact that no person in the world looks exactly like anyone else. Beauty comes from the tragedy that each person’s life is destined to be lost to time. I believe women are too hard on themselves. I believe that when you love someone, she becomes beautiful to you. I believe the eyes see everything through the heart- and nothing in the world feels as good as resting them on someone you love. I have trained my eyes to look for beauty, and I’ve gotten very good at finding it. You can argue and tell me it’s not true, but I really don’t care what anyone says. I have come, at last, to believe in the title I came up with for the book: Everyone Is Beautiful.
