Audrey Hepburn, A Poem

“A wonderful poem written by Audrey Hepburn in response to a request for her secrets on beauty and grace:

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 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.
