We all want to look and feel beautiful, but as time marches on, it sometimes feels like it’s stomping right across our faces (thanks, Truvy, for the brutal honesty). And she's not wrong. With today’s world of fillers, Botox, nips, tucks, bleach bottles, and diet pills, women are spending an extraordinary amount of money just to slow down the clock—or at least give the illusion we can.
But here’s a thought to wrinkle that perfect facade (pun intended): what if beauty isn't about fighting time but about honoring it? Think of the women who came before us—the matriarchs of our families, whose laugh lines told stories of joy and resilience. We revered them, not for their lack of crow’s feet, but for their wisdom, warmth, and unwavering sense of self.
Now, imagine teaching the next generation that this kind of beauty—the kind that radiates from who we are, not how we look—is what truly matters. It’s not enough to say, "You’re perfect just the way you are." We have to live it. Imperfections and all. Wear those laugh lines like a badge of honor, because they’re proof you’ve lived, loved, and laughed (probably at your own bad jokes). And honestly, isn’t that far more beautiful than anything a syringe or diet pill can promise?
