Legends are the people who made a difference, inspired others and also they are the ones who leaves a mark in this world. To tell you the truth, there are lots of personalities I would love to feature on my blog. But there is just one person who stood out. Audrey Hepburn.
Audrey Hepburn sporting a Ray-Ban Wayfarer which is originally made for men, but she decided to break the rules! :)
She has been an inspiration to all of us specially to the ladies and in the fashion world. She is a perfect example of a beauty that is elegant and classy, high-fashion and timeless. She inspired me most because she doesn't even care if others called or treated her as an icon, she told them that she is just being herself. She is a humble, generous and helpful person.
I learned some things about her while writing this blog. Here's a few that I learned:
In 1988, she became a special ambassador to the United Nations UNICEF fund helping children in Latin America and Africa.
She is hydrophobic and still did a scene where she was thrown into a swimming pool.
She is self-conscious about her size 10 feet. (Which I find funny because, I too am conscious with my size 9 feet!)
An independent woman who is strong and knows who she is and what she wants. She is my Ray-Ban Legend. It is known to all that becoming a Legend is not about the goal of becoming one. It is about being yourself and allowing yourself to be different. Making changes for the better and selflessly giving. Audrey did all that and made her mark.
I am no icon. I'm not even popular. But one day, I know for sure, in my own little ways, I would make an impact on someone's life. I might affected someone else's life already. I just didn't know it. It's the life's ripple effect. One little deed can make a huge impact to others.
Mikki Galang of breakmyspell.blogspot.com has inspired me to write this article. I would like to thank her because this also have been a self realization for me. Thank you so much!
"Only the absolutely determined people succeed."
