Are you beautiful?
How can you tell if someone is beautiful? Is it through physical appearance? Attitude?
I grew up observing how life works. I noticed that when you are beautiful people gets hook easily and it makes easier to make other people work around your fingers.
Some uses their physical appearance to gain money. They invest too much on theirselves just to lure people. A lil flesh to show off for a bucks and thats it!
My cousin who has flawless skin, white complexion and looks like a barbie is given more consideration. She gets to have more attention than the others. No, I am not jealous but there are really some relatives who are insensitive and would want kids to compete. That would make them feel a rival as they grow up. Competition is good when it is healthy but I do not support it when it makes people become greedy of rewards and attention.
In Showbiz, even when you have the talent you will not become famous right away not unless you undergo surgery to make your nose pointed or prolly make your jawline look better. A lot would even dare to do surgery just to look perfect.
In applying for a job, those that are beautiful gets to be noticed first before those that are just brainy. Well a brainy plus a pretty face is a perfect combination but you just can't have it all! If you do, then you will be in line with those Miss Universe for sure but even them are being asked to be someone they are not. They have to act like this and like that for the eyes of the judgemental paparazzi.
Do not get me wrong, investing in ourselves is never bad in fact it is best to do so as it makes us gain more confidence and self-esteem. Just that, others are doing it for easy money.
Some are just too lazy to work or find a job that makes them earn on their own for a living and so they get into some dating sites or try to hook someone who got money in the bank.
I grew up thinking how would it feel to be beautiful and be more privilege?
-Like the likes of Catriona and Pia of Miss Universe.
How would it feel to be like of those artist who are naturally born with a perfect face and be famous?
-Like Anne Curtis and her sister, and those in Showbiz who are very much blessed for having such a pretty face.
How would it feel to just pose and model some items then earn huge amount?
-Like those that are in Victoria Secret and the likes of Gigi Hadid.
How would it feel to be on their shoe?
...end thoughts...
But then, I know I could not get all those answers myself because I am just an average woman who does not look good for everyone's taste. I do not know if this is what you call insecurity or just curiosity?
At the end of the day what matters most is the acceptance.
"Accept your flaws and love yourself. Appreciate those imperfections because no one is born perfect, some people just master how to look one."

Growing up I guess I was asking the same questions. I never thought of myself as pretty or beautiful, until one day I did. These days I look in the mirror and tell myself 'I love you'. Sure there are many prettier than me, but there is only one me. And so there is also only one you. That's enough π
