what is beauty?
none can define it properly
for me, a person may be pretty
and to you, really ugly
beauty is felt
when our attitude decides
to accept or not
never look down on another
calling names like plain
beauty does not depend on perfect features
it is what lies within
a good heart
a kind soul
will be remembered evermore
I remember reading an article in an old issue of the Reader's Digest about a man who used to comment " You are so beautiful" to ladies who were not so pretty as considered by the society and he used to be rewarded with their beautiful smiles in return. (Do not try that now, in this age. Times have changed)
Why cannot we appreciate the beauty that is inherent in a soul? I have come across people who always point out the negativity in a situation. This attitude puts me off. I am not perfect but I do not like people who gossip and point out other peoples' faults. Many families face this problem when members gather for some function and a single comment triggers a war of words and the whole scene is ruined.
Life is not about winning trophies or being the center of attention. It is about living in harmony and inspiring the next generation to follow.
