There is a middle aged Chinese lady in Ballarat who runs a small corner store. She might have been attractive when she was young. I stop there whenever I am driving past. She has the very nicest and most sincere smile in this city. Her beauty is neither stale nor abandoned.
Very sad. I think society harvests youth and beauty in detrimental ways to real self-worth. Well written!

I agree with Olga. People are beautiful on the inside, what we see on the outside tells us nothing about that person. Well written, Allison…

Beauty radiates from the inside outwards. You don’t have to be pretty to be beautiful.
