I took the above from my favorite Twitter feed. (Think Smarter) Is it just me or does there seem to be so much emphasis on physical looks these days? Or do I just think about it more because I am getting older? When I think about a famous beautiful person who probably aged more gracefully than just about anybody, it had to be Audrey Hepburn. In her words:
Real beauty is timeless and breathtaking.
So, I am not sure what to write about this morning. I slept in. I feel kind of foggy. Nothing is striking me. So, I decided to google quotes for inspiration. My first search was “prettiest quotes”. This gave me a monitor full of quotes about beauty like the one oft repeated by Aubrey Hepburn, “Happy girls are the prettiest.”
That wasn’t really what I was going for, so I looked up “loveliest quotes.” This search filled my monitor with syrupy, sickeningly sweet romantic quotes to read to you lover, at bedtime. I won’t even repeat any of them here.
So, I finally searched up “most meaningful quotes”. For some reason, today all of these quotes just got on my nerves, but I kept looking. Then this one showed up (on the most meaningful quote search . . . seriously). This is one I had to share:
I’m not really angry today, but this struck me as hilarious. I find it even more funny because it showed up on a page full of wisdom from Aristotle, Confucius, Anne Frank, Einstein and Maya Angelou. I never knew how wise the minions were until I saw the company that they keep.
I get that this blog post has a Seinfeld-like quality to it – a ramble about nothing. But that is what makes Sundays so great, you can ramble on, or not. You can do meaningful things, or not. If there was ever a day to just be in the moment and to savor being alive, it is on Sundays. Savor your Sunday. I’ll be back tomorrow.
