       Below is a wonderful poem Audrey Hepburn wrote when she      was asked to share her  'beauty tips'.

            It was read at her funeral years later:


    For attractive lips , speak words of kindness,

    For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people,

    For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry,

    For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it a

        once a day. 

    For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone, 

    People, even more than things have to be restored, renewed,     

    revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.

    Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one

    at the end of each of your arms.

    As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands;

    one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.


    If you share this with another woman, 

    you will boost another woman's self-esteem, and 

    she will know that you care about her.
