This article shows us that real beauty emanates from within us. I am hoping that this will illuminate you.



Beauty Secret
-by Steve Goodier-

Comic Phyllis Diller quipped that she once entered a beauty contest. "I not only came in last," she said, "I was hit in the mouth by Miss Congeniality."

Ed Feinhandler believes he is the world's ugliest man! But others disagree because, the fact is, Ed has discovered a universal "beauty secret."

He has won 15 "Ugly Man" competitions. According to the Daily Sparks Tribune (Sparks, Nevada USA), Ed drives a minivan with "Mr. Ugly" personalized license plates. Good looks were never important to him. But helping people always has been, and the thousands of dollars he has raised over the years from "Ugly Man" competitions has been donated to charity. In his spare time, Ed coaches youth sports, teaches tennis to underprivileged children and delivers Christmas baskets to the elderly. That's the beauty of it!

To know Ed is to know a beautiful man whose real attractiveness comes from within. His secret is that beauty has little to do with physical looks, and much to do with the heart.

You, too, probably know some exquisitely beautiful people. They are kind and generous. They are happy and contented. And if you look closely inside your own heart, you may discover more beauty there than you imagined possible. For as Ed Feinhandler teaches us, beauty has more to do with love than looks.



This one's for you Nia. You are as beautiful inside as you are outside.
