Sometimes you run into a
soul mate. Someone who might think the same as you and feel about things the same as you do. People who think it's important to bring positive things
into the light strike me as
soul mates. I recently encountered a blog that I really liked. It is fairly new but the thoughts and ideas are so similar to my thinking I had to spotlight it. I had a comment on my last blog that I followed up on and discovered a very neat lady who has a blog called:
One Heart – Two Hands. Her site title happens to have the last part of an Audrey Hepburn
poem. I had taped a printout of this poem to my computer wardrobe door a couple of years agoe and it's still there. I love Audrey Hepburn..she is the soul of sophistication and elegance.
Anyone can see this quality in her photos, her movies, her voice. Here is the entire poem which ends with the reference to Two Hands. I am told that Audrey Hepburn favorite poem, by Sam Levensen, when asked to share her "beauty tips", was this one ....It was read at her funeral years later:
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 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.
I'm thinking why is it that I think a lot of people will visit her site? Why is it that she has something of value to share?
Why is it that Audrey was so kind and elegant? You tell me....
It turns out that my wedding dance song came from one of her movies...Breakfast at Tiffany's...the song is "Moon River".....:)
Thank-you!
