"To look beautiful you must be beautiful. To expect to cultivate beauty without trying to make your thoughts, words and actions beautiful would prove a failure and reveal insincerity, shallowness and love of artifical display.
If you determine to express kindness in your every act of life you will be surprised at the number of opportunities you will find every day for doing good. There is a kind and an unkind way of doing everything, so be careful, for the simplest act of your daily life reveals your mental attitude.
Loveliness is the true beauty. Loveliness is lovelikeness, or the likeness of love. You will, therefore, see how necessary it is to express, loving and kind relations toward everyone you meet. Remember that every thought of hate, envy or jealousy you allow to take possession of you destroys your beauty. Then shun them as you would a leper or a poisonous reptile. They are far more dangerous, for one evil thought attracts another in rapid succession.
That you may attain to the highest standard of beauty, it is necessary that you recognize the fact that you are, through your thoughts, continually rebuilding the physical body by molecular renewal. If your present beauty is below the true standard, you need not become discouraged, nor remain a slave to your present appearance, for you can change it. Each day as you build parts of the body anew, you can, by correct thoughts and a hygienic mode of living, create so much beauty and power that in a few months a transformation will have occurred."
