beauty is many things, however true beauty dwells within a persons heart... it is the abilty to utter a kind word, the abilty to help others, that sweet smile, the shoulder you give to someone to lean on........... its when you can listen but not judge, when you can give but not ask....... its when you can love without condition

(thats my opinion anyway)

yes, a very old saying and very truthfull.

Although commonly used frompeople to justify their irrational and not-passioned actions.
what mean is, its used as an excuse.

wrongly from my sight.



But back to the quote:

Yes, people can be beautiful inside.
and can NOT be as well.

But the beauty lies on: ACCEPTING dat.


normally, it can be seen in older couples, dat have lived enough with each oder, know dem each quite well - and their physical appearance is no longer appealing - dat dis quote is attachable.

The ACCEPTANCE of people as they are - with values and defects - is the only they can lie on, in dis stage of life.



Other point we can gather from the quote is:

Love blindness.
not commonly interpreted as dat but yes.

beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, because dats he wanna "see" in dat person.
he wants it badly, he gets it.





other point:

inner beauty. yes the old issue.

"u can be ugly outside but gourgeous inside".
nah please, excuse again no.

i agree that outside/inside most of da time do not coincide, but i cannot deny that both can contribute.


but yes totally true.


But the way, in many cultures, the "eyes are the mirror of the soul".

in this quote i truly believe.

So many beauties in this appealing world
The true beauty lies in the beholder's eyes
There is beauty in the child's innocence and in mother's love
There is beauty in a friend's affection and in a tender heart
There is beauty in a pretty smile and caring eyes
There is beauty in the morning sun and a rainy day
There is beauty in the flaky slow and a pleasant spring
There is beauty in the milky moon and the graceful rivers
There is beauty in a hard earned victory and a hopeful soul
There is beauty in me and beauty in you
So many beauties in this spectacular world and its dazzling life
And the true beauty lies in the beholder's eyes

Every1 has a different perspective on what beauty is ,It means that beauty does not exist independently, it exists in the mind of the observer,each person has their own opinion about what or who is beautiful.

it definitely is true.
we are different individuals with different preferences.
we may be looking at the same subject yet each one will have their own opinion about it.

it's a matter of how we see things & how we want it to appear to ourselves for us to see beauty out of something which other may not see as beautiful.
