Beauty or Beast?

I 'own' my tiny little personal office for more than a year now. Time really flies eh? I'm getting so used to the life up here. It's lively and fun. Hey people~ Genting Malaysia really is a great start for all fresh grads. Planning to stay here a while longer to see if I can progress further and higher career wise.

My point of blogging today is not about my job though. I was blog walking, as my normal morning routine, I came across one of my regular blogs talking about beauty. Well, I need some opinion people. Is beauty really that important? I have to admit that when it comes to the outter look topic, I can be a little sensitive about it.

See, since young I use to 'cuci mata' with beautiful people. Boys and girls alike. Well, don't get me wrong but i stare out of admiration, that's all. Wishing I was them, imagining if I had that kind of fortune. Well, I have been living in inferior to beauty. Starting of with a stunning older sister, the one who I had envied all my life. Then many many more mocking from friends during school time regarding my looks.

Well, I had always have very low self esteem on myself. In addition to that, I was lack of talent to make things better. But things chaged as I grow. I learn to accept the way I was born to look. Sometimes, I believe, if you are destine to have that in life, what can we do besides making the best of it, right?

Well, life goes on as it is. I really did build a life aside from my inner feelings. Things got better, or so I thought. Until very recently, I faced the biggest impact for the above matter. Because of beauty, I was betrayed. I had read emails from the love of my life (but not to me) stating things like 'you have the most mesmerizing looks of an angel' and 'you have such a pretty face I feel so lucly to have you'. Because of beauty I not only got abandoned but I also faced comments such as 'disgusting'.

But in the end, hey, look who has the last laugh. Not everyone is perfect. To find one with a complete perfection, it's close to a probability of one in a million. Most beauties have other black spots though not visible to the naked eyes. I have many proves from my own experiences. In the end is the inner beauty that wins all. People don't be fooled, all beauties will one day fate. Just as the saying goes, beauty is just skin deep.

Beauties will think that they deserve the world. That they should be given everything and more, all the attention, all the love, all the happiness, till sometimes they forget that the world does not revolve around them. I'm not stereotyping but those that I know of are like that. It really differs from those who works hard for their happiness and not just wait for it to drop to their feet.

Many people that I know of, many who has personalities (and bodies) to die for do not really parioritise looks. They focus more on someone who knows how to shower proper care and love. Someone who knows how to be a wife. Some one who wants to share every burden and pain. Some one who offers a hand to hold at times of difficulties. Someone who that would love to spoil because they deserve it. Not just some one who expects the tray to be layed to them all the time.

I just want everyone to know that beauty is just a minor in my view. If you are just a beauty but is ugly else where, what's the point? I know that beauty can get one quite far without a lot of effort but those who knows how to fight and work hard will get further and stay longer. Believe it. Don't take beauty too much too serious or important. I believe everyone deserves some happiness. Work for it. Even if you are beautiful, be a Beauty with Purpose, not just taking advantage of it.
