What Is Beauty?
People tend to say Beauty Lies In The Eyes Of The Beholder.
Well, There are 2 types of beauty.
Inner & Outer beauty.
Inner Beauty is 1 that cannot be seen.
It comes from the heart.
Inner Beauty comes from beneath the surface.
It shines through.
Inner beauty cannot be seen but can be felt by one's heart.
Outer appearances pale in comparison to what's inside a person.
People who focus on their looks are shallow.
They care on how people look at them and put up a show.
They are not what they are.
They are merely masking themselves to look good.
Plastic surgery, implants, make up, these are tools one uses to put up that show, to look better.
However, this is society.
The people of the society only look on the surface.
If you look better than others, you would score higher marks in that person's mind.
The society does not bother to look at who you really are.
People tend to neglect virtues.
They would backstab, sabotage one another to be the 1 to remain the last 1 standing.
This is for survival.
Inner beauty and outer beauty are differenciated from each other by a lot.
It is not possible to posses both.
Its up to 1 to think and decide what 1 wants.
Inner beauty cannot be seen and yet seen at the same time.
It takes much effort to have and nurture.
1 must know what is wrong and what is right.
Outer beauty is more important to most of us.
We want to look good.
But are we simply trying to fill up what we lack?
Are we trying to use our appearances to fill up the inner beauty we lack?
Outer appearances are much easier to get then the beauty inside of us.
Its a question of choice.
What do we really want?
We decide what we want for ourselves.
There is no real definition of beauty.
Our outer appearances?
Our character?
Our virtues?
Its all up to a personal definition of oneself.
Everybody has their own mind and definition of beauty.
We decide what is the real beauty for ourselves.
Outer beauty is the beauty which one can see when a stranger takes a 1st look at you but inner beauty which will shine through the rain and really show along the road.
Does having a pretty face means you are pretty?
Does it really mean it that way?
Its all on the surface.
Purely skin deep.
We should look deeper.
We should look beyond that surface.
Do not judge a book by a cover.
It's the same for us.
We should not judge a person by how he/she looks.
Try and learn to look beyond and beneath the surface.
Thats where beauty truly lies.
