A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.
~ Roald Dahl ~

I like that sentiment. It reminds me a little bit of that passage from the book The Velveteen Rabbit when they talk about people who are real can see certain things that others can’t. Kind of the same sentiment.

I use good thoughts to get the attention away from my huge eye-bags! 🙂
Nice genuine people don’t have to worry about how they look. Wonky or not, they will always be seen for what they really are.
Best wishes, Pete.
