very lovely words – should be framed
Thank you so much. What a wonderful thing to say 😀
A perfect description – vanity is very much a curse! And so is being naturally beautiful, unfortunately. I wonder what we would be like if we had no mirrors, maybe pride and vanity would just appear in something else – like being good at baking cakes, or a great artist. Beauty is something most of us crave in one way or another, and when we find it, we make the terrible mistake of worshipping it! 🙂
Absolutely right, it is not always in physical beauty… pride/vanity can manifest itself in so many ways.
“dreading beauty’s brevity” Very nice! How I wish it were merely physical beauty with which we become enamored, not to mention the brevity of it all.
Thanks for stopping by 🙂 Glad you enjoyed this piece.
