beauty... is no longer what it used be.

being beautiful, means having:

• that perfect pair of eyebrows
• flawless skin
• double eyelids
• those six-pack abs
• a lean, toned body
• smooth, silky hair
• ...
• everything we perceive as PERFECT.
  

is this what you would consider beautiful?

my teacher came in today, without any make-up. of course, it was kind of a shock. but then, i realised, she's still beautiful. she still radiated that aura of self-confidence. she didnt care. she didnt care that her lips were a weird shade of purplish-blue. she didnt care that her skin was patchy and skin tone uneven. she just didnt care.

our perception of beauty has been horribly, horribly compromised. we always look on the outside, no longer look on the inside.

"Oh my god. Look at that zit."

"She is SO fat, it's unbelieveable. HAHAHA..."

"I'm ugly."

no, you're not.

beautiful, means being beautiful on the inside.

you dont need to be skinny. nor tall. or have great skin. people will no longer look for that outer beauty once they see the inner beauty.

the video below clearly shows that the perfection we always long to have, was never ever there in the first place. so think about it, before you say how perfect those models always seem to be.

shine on, people. your spectrum of true colours... that's what we want in a rainbow.
