REAL BEAUTY

Beauty is an important criterion in our lives especially for woman. What the real beauty is a question that ca be discussed. Although physical beauty is so important for some, most people agree on the fact that it is temporary and should not be appreciated since it is not people’s choice.

In many societies beauty is important. When we meet new people, our first impression depends mostly on their appearance. Many women spend both their time and money to be more beautiful. Particularly media and television force us to give so importance to physical appearance. New fashions, models and some beauty standards attract people’s attention and cause them to look at people regardless of their thoughts, feelings, and characteristics. It is certain that physical beauty is temporary. Even though some people get old, they still have their beauty, because it is just moved from their faces into their hearts. This shows us that real beauty is inside(1).

To look at beauty from another perspective, it is a feature that people can not choose. We have no chance to decide to be beautiful or to struggle for it. This proves us that it can not be appreciated. On the other hand inner beauty is not like that. You can try to be a better person or you can have better characteristics. People can behave as themselves without their physical appearance.

To sum up, a person can be loved or admired due to their physical appearance. However, it last sometimes a few minutes, hours, days maybe years. But we can live in people’s minds and hearts forever with our inner beauty. This is the real beauty that no mirror can reflect.
