What is beauty anyway? :)


I want you to do something for me. Close your eyes and imagine what beauty looks like. What is beautiful? How do you define beautiful? Is it that young girl with the perfect features, long hair, radiant skin? Or that tall, dark and handsome man? What is beautiful to you?

I define beauty as the person with the heart that goes out to those in need, the eyes that cry for someone they don't even know, the hands that reach out to help others, the soul that puts another before themselves. It doesn't matter how beautiful you are on the outside, what matters is how beautiful you are on the inside. Outer beauty is something you are born with, while inner beauty is a gift to yourself.

If I gave you a perfect white rose and a withered, dry white rose, which one would you pick? Would you even consider picking the withered dry rose? I would. Simply because it is inspiring to see the beauty of the rose that has lived life fully and died. And, lets not forget, the perfect one would wither and die one day too. So, always remember, what you are when you are just being yourself—that is beauty in the true sense. Who cares if people say you are not beautiful? You know who you are on the inside, and thats all that matters.

Beauty comes with believing! If you believe you are beautiful, then you are!



How beautiful is the Belief, when we belief in the God
How beautiful are the Creatures, when we belief in the Creator
How beautiful is the Motherhood, when we belief in the Sacrifices
How beautiful is the Fatherhood, when we belief in the Battles
How beautiful is the Childhood, when we belief in the Innocence

How beautiful is the Dream, when we belief in the Ambition
How beautiful is the Contentment, when we belief in the Simplicity
How beautiful is the Life, when we belief in the dead
How beautiful is the Love, when we belief in the Care
How beautiful is the Happiness, when we belief in the Sadness
How beautiful is the Relationships, when we belief in the Tender

How beautiful is the Fruit, when we belief in the Farming
How beautiful is the Confidence, when we belief in Our self
How beautiful is the Beauty, when we belief in Our eyes
How beautiful is the World, when we belief in Peace
How beautiful is the Friendship, when we belief in Brotherhood
How beautiful is the Marriage, when we belief in Sharing
How beautiful is the World, when we belief in the Peace

  2. This is beautiful! Seriously i wrote on this topic few months back and i din complete it.. and totally forgot about it!

    I really love they way you put this soo perfectly! Very true indeed gurl. In this materialistic world, people ( including me) tend to forget what is the real meaning of beauty! Its not from what you look at the outside, its inside that matters. Are we keeping the temple of god, our heart, pure and clean always?

    Nway, this is a wonderful piece.. love it! :) especially the thing you wrote on the rose! Very well written! :)
