We can’t avoid the bodily changes that occur as we become older. Our personality and inner light, on the other hand, are resistant to the passage of time, which is why some people never lose the glow that illuminates their faces. And, when we look back at old, rarely-seen photos of superstars, we can see that their magnetism was always present, even before they were famous. Proving that it is, after all, what is on the inside that counts.
