Affirmation for May 31, 2011: You Are the Beholder

People often say that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,' and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.- Salma HayekThought of the day:Being part of a society means, to a certain degree, caring about how others perceive us. But the flipside of that very concept is that we ourselves are the ones doing the perceiving. When we see something negative, we often tell ourselves a negative story full of assumptions and speculations.But we do have the power to put a positive spin on things, and give the world the benefit of the doubt and a smile. Tell yourself a positive story about the world around you, and the world within you.Have a happy day!TeamDS
