Beauty is like a golden mirror that shows what's inside. It shows how someone really sees themselves and how much discipline they have.
Being attractive shows that we care about the people around us. Just like we shine our shoes, wash our cars, and trim our lawns to give "eye-candy" to people walking by, we keep our bodies in good shape to give people something to look up to and try to be like.
I think that beauty is important and that it is at the heart of a civilised society. Imagine if everyone threw caution to the wind and shuffled around in tattered clothes, sagging bellies, unkempt hair, blackened fingernails, and smelly breath that only a mother could love. No one would be happy, except maybe the people who make mouthwash. People who don't like beauty because they think it's shallow are probably too lazy to grab a bar of soap or a jump rope.
But beautiful people aren't always supermodels with faces like Greek gods and bodies that don't make sense. This is a myth that sneaky people who sell dangerous bust implants and snake-oil creams spread. Let them put that sludge on their faces all the time. Then I would trust them.
People who are beautiful are normal people who watch what they eat, keep their bodies clean, and wear nice clothes that don't cost much. They live in a way that gives them power, read books that make them think, and do many other things that make them more aware.
Most importantly, beauty comes from the inside. People who are attractive say what they think and fight for what they believe in. Whether they are handsome or pretty, plain or not, people who are beautiful on the inside show that they are smart and hardworking. Remember that the way we act and interact with the rest of the world shapes who we are.
Last, beauty is a whole. It takes work for people to be the best they can be. They know that their bodies, souls, and spirits are all a part of who they are. So, they improve each part by getting better at their skills and interests. Even though they have ordinary faces, their lives are anything but ordinary. These amazing people are the best that people have to offer. They are much more interesting than the empty-headed Greek models on the catwalk.
Adding to your beauty is as easy as taking care of your body and mind. It doesn't take a lot of work, just a little bit of self control. Here's how to make people want you:
- Go to a comedy show. Your sense of humour will get better. Wit is hard to find and very valuable.
- Your best friend is a book or magazine. Improve what's in your head and talk about things that make you look more beautiful. Being smart is attractive.
Is that a hamburger you're trying to shove down your throat? Stop. What you eat makes you who you are. Do you want to be a pig? Then bite into that hamburger.
- Think about being hot. Feel sexy. What you think you are is what you are. Your body does what your mind tells it to do. The $3000 executive coaches like to charge a lot of money to teach this amazing piece of common sense. Don't spend it.
- Ask and Listen. The best conversationalists don't take over the conversation. They ask a lot of questions instead.... And just listen for hours. Stop and give that some thought. Doesn't your best friend listen really well?
- Soap, shampoo, and mouthwash are better than pheromone sprays, libido boosters, and nose lifts that didn't work. Cleanliness is the honey that brings the cute bees.
- Always look your best. You probably had a time like that. You were at the mall in a mess of coveralls. Then you see your boss or a pretty stranger. Say with me: "NEVER AGAIN." Say it with me again: "NEVER AGAIN."
So, get out and shine. You don't need all those creams, lotions, and surgeries to look good.
Be bold. Pick beauty.
