Beauty Lies in the Eyes of Beholder

"Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder" these were the words I uttered to one of my best friends one day & I never thought that these words can change somebody's life, at least to an extent.
Today, after a long time I met this friend of mine who is now a confident individual. She was a beautiful woman, at least through my eyes, though she always thought that she is just a average person, as that was what she was told over and over again, sometimes clearly and audibly and sometimes indirectly by the actions of other.
Despite being an intelligent person & an able administrator, she always saw herself as an under performer and always had an inferiority complex.
Once while having lunch, I just said that "you are equally beautiful, you just need to have faith in yourself. Beauty lies inside, its in the eyes of beholder" And time passed, I moved from that city.
And today, when we met, I saw a completely different version of her. She repeated the same words and smiled.
I felt really happy seeing her.

Thanks for such kind words.. Actually anyone who has friends is lucky and it really feels good when we are able to affect somebody's life for the better. Truly self confidence makes huge difference..
