Letters to the Editor

Develop your depth and compassion
and you will project another kind of beauty into the world.
I won't want to be unkind, but as a career woman 10 years older than you who was never blessed (cursed?) with your apparently astounding beauty, I can assure you that no matter how valuable your considerable intelligence and talents may be, your beauty propelled you further along in your career than you would have made it were you not physically blessed. I'm not saying that you aren't intelligent or very good at what you do, just that if you think your looks haven't made a difference for you all of this time you are fooling yourself.
You know that this is true. And that it why you are frightened.
From your letter, you don't sound like you are a person who is innately kind. Quite possibly because you have never needed to be. Stop thinking vicious thoughts about other women. Just stop. Try understanding and developing the power of wisdom, kindness and compassion in your personal life and in your career, along with your other talents. You'll feel better.
I truly do wish you well.
