The Beauty Coin

Homework # 2

To receive a Beauty coin, you must seek an opportunity during that week where you act with beauty. It could be doing something nice for someone, sharing something special with a friend, anything you want. You can then choose to either write a journal entry about how you acted beautifully, or draw a picture of what you did to show beauty to others.

This was our homework assignment. Ive chosen many opportunitys to act with beauty. I been especially more aware of it inna last cuppla days since getting this homework. But Im struggling with tha actual assignment of writing about it. To me an act of beauty stands beautiful on its own. To write about how I acted beautifully somehow stains the beauty of the act. I would much rather write about an act of beauty I experienced or one that I witnessed or heard about. Beauty is an experience.

For instance, I am between fambilys rite now. My really close fren has found her perfeck fambily (finally) an I coudnt be happier for her. I met her fambily one nite anna cuppla hours later, outta tha blue, thay offered to be my foster parents. Juss like that. Thay had no intentions of adding any more kids to their lives. An I had stopped looking for fambily. But thay did a beautiful act by opening their home an fambily to me.

There are so many examples of beautiful acts just like this in my daily life. Its wat inspires me to give back or pay it forward. Whether I am acting in beauty, witnessing beauty or experiencing beauty, its all beautiful.
