（单词翻译）

I wish that I could tell every person that I meet that he or she is a beautiful person--and have them believe it. I wish I could look them in the eyes and tell them of their beauty and have them accept the words for what they truly are--the truth, plain and simple.

You and I both know that most people will deny their beauty, expressing what they feel is modesty1 or humility2. It's easier for us to be told that we're talented or intelligent--our own beauty is something that we don't want to face.

You could help me to convince people of their innate3 beauty. You could agree with me in an effort to reinforce the message. You could give a few specifics to illustrate4 just what we're talking about when we say the person is beautiful. You could reassure5 the person that I'm not saying it to flatter or to try to win the person over or get something out of the person, but just trying to express in words the beauty I see when I look into that person's eyes and see the human being there, the person who gets happy and hurt and who laughs and who cries.

You can help me by reminding the person that beauty isn't about comparing ourselves with others, but about the part of us that shines when we love others and love life. It's not all physical and it's not all spiritual, but a tender combination of all that we are.

This is Faith at Faith Radio Online-Simply to relax. Now, I’m telling you: You're a beautiful person!
