Every woman knows, when looking back through photos, which smiles came from the light within. Like a chemistry experiment, we glow somehow when added to certain people- our kindred travelers of the golden brick road- who make us genuinely curl upwards smiling from every cell and spark. Those are the ticket stub, ribbon, phone number on a scrap of paper, lucky penny, empty perfume bottle, class ring, button from a beloved shirt, mix tape, pressed flower, saved savored moments in which we are, truly, beautiful.
