Hello, loves!
"Beauty is only skin deep"
Personally, I find that saying the biggest load of bull crap out there. I believe just the opposite. Beauty, in my eyes, does not reach the skin. You're probably thinking, what in the world are you on about Abby?I don't think beauty does not reach the skin, because really, who's to say who's beautiful and who's not? How has society decided who is beautiful and who isn't? Media. Media has decided for us. Media has created our celebrities and models so "beautiful" that the "standard of beauty" is practically impossible to replicate. Why do they do this? It's really a simple solution:
You see, if they make models look so incredibly "flawless" in photos, the public will buy products that will try make it so we can try to reach their levels of beauty. The thing is, it's impossible. Not even the models themselves are as flawless as their pictures! Why? Because professionals go in and remove every blemish and once of fat on them. These photo shoppers make the models skinnier, they make it so the models' hair is pristine, so not a hair is out of place. They remove wrinkles, they remove body hair, they make them tanner, they do anything they can do so these models look "perfect".
But when did someone decide that skinny, tan, and tall are the standard of beautiful? In third world countries, if you're "fat" you're beautiful. Why? Because it means you have money and can afford food. But who's to say that's really "beautiful" too?
You see, there is no pure definition of what someone considers outward beauty or not, because everyone has different opinions on what they find attractive.
So, girls, before you cover your faces in make up and dye your hair and wear revealing clothes and throw up your dinner, and guys, before you go to the gym and work out for three hours and drink enormous amounts of protein shakes, think about that. Someone will find you beautiful and handsome and attractive just the way you are. There is no reason for us to give up our health for outward "beauty" when beauty is undefinable. As long as you are a beautiful person one the inside, it doesn't matter what you look like. (Of course, I'm not saying that you should completely disown living healthy, please don't do that. I'm also not saying it's bad to wear make up or dye your hair, because I do both those things. But you should do them for the right reason. I dye my hair because it's something fun I do with my friends and I think I look a lot better with red hair than brown hair, I could care less what others think. And I wear make up because one feature I really love about myself is my eyes and I like to extenuate them. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't think we should do those types of things because we want everyone else to think we're "beautiful" though, because everyone has a different opinion and everyone will feel differently towards you. In all honesty, you're going to find people think you look absolutely horrendous. The same thing will happen to me, and everyone else in the world. But I can guarantee you will find someone who will see you and think "This person is an incredibly beautiful person.")
I feel like this is such an important message that needs to be spread to everyone, and it's not something people talk about very often.
Thanks for reading everyone, and remember:
"Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it."
