"I've been struggling in various ways with the question "What is beauty?" since I first became aware of your work, Jade. Pondering this video was a very emotional experience, and it took me to a place where I finally understand.

We all try to skate through life in some way; life is too rich to get it all at once. We all get distracted, fooled, misled about beauty when our momentum flags. Beauty isn’t in the eye of the beholder (though a loving eye draws it out); it is each individual's creation, the one thing you can do and share endlessly. Being beautiful, being a kind of beauty warrior, isn't about bravely putting on a face or a shawl; it's about being beautiful by being as alive as you can be. The only concern of beauty is to give."
