For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you ll never walk alone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you ll find one at the end of your arm. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
True beauty is reflected in a woman s soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows. It was my fortieth birthday.

A fortieth birthday isn t, after all, exactly front-page headline news. It s no big deal.
