Commercials Create Debt Targeting Ego And Low Self Esteem.

I have never fully understood the power television commercials. Some are so simplistic and, dare I say, stupid that to believe them defy explanation.

Hate is also an enemy of beautiful women and should be an abhorrence for any woman who desires to be beautiful inside and out. Anger fueled hate assaults and destroy all that is beautiful in women who once were or could be beautiful. Anger and hate destroy the beauty in you.
