beauty is not upon the skin
though some skin is most pleasing
no-
it is told
by wives of old
that beauty resides within

and there is truth within this telling

“mirror mirror on the wall,
who’s the fairest of them all?”

pretty is as pretty does
though rose’s blush is most appealing
yes-
a cliché,
as one might say
but action is the proof in this pudding

and there is truth within this telling

so don’t judge a book by it’s cover
open it’s bindings – read the text

the next great novel just might be discovered

s.a.t.
philosophical musings amusing

If I wander far enough, long enough, will I finally know . . .

this wise wisdom
is everlasting
and the way of hearts
despite the superficial
the wisdom wins out in the end

living life by example....I believe you think like me, always hated asking for something, felt, if people wanted to, they would on their own....
