Beauty

I just wanted to pop in really quickly to share this layout that i did over the weekend. It was for both the Pencillines challenge as well as the Beauty challenge. So glad that i got the chance to do this.
Journaling reads:
In today’s day and age the idea of what beauty is and how it should be shown is everywhere. There are a hundred different check lists to tick off against before you can even begin to see as if you are beautiful to those around you – family, friends and strangers alike. What color hair you have, what clothes you wear, where you shop, what you drive and how you act are standards that are measured against how beautiful the outside world think you are. This is not true for me. Sure, it may have been true a few years ago or even a few weeks ago but not anymore. Beauty is this man. The strength of his character. The gentleness of his arms. The tears in his eyes when you surprise him in church. The laughter that you hear from him telling his own jokes. These are the things that make him beautiful to me. I love you Dad, thank you for showing me beauty in its most natural form.

That is it from me today. I have a great book review coming up soon as well as an update on the knitting saga. Have a great day everyone.
