"Personalities link humankind together
Expressions of personality set us apart

Expression is our fingerprint to the world.
Expression stimulates & frustrates us, romances & comforts us.

Eyes...'The Windows to the Soul.'

Noses & ears...Whimsically sensual.
Reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously.

LIPS. Romantic, mysterious, innocent or downright vixen.
Symbolic of passion for life."

Kennedi Benjamin, July 2000
