Beauty matters

Hi,

Had written this post long back..posting it now!
Is being beautiful an advantage? I am sure the answer to this question has each one of us "nodding" our heads in the "negative". I say nodding in the -ve, bcoz each one of us wants to say No but we know in our hearts that the answer is Yes....an article in the TOI a few weeks back made me think. More often than not beautiful = fair and fair = smart. Right from childhood, tiny girls feel that the other child is getting all the goodies bcoz she has the prettiest face and the prettiest dress :-(...and in the teens..all guys seem 2 vie for ur best frnd's attention.:-(...nd then when u get matured...u take it in ur stride and say its luck...lolz....

And why on earth do people think that fair = smart= pleasing personality? And people implies all - interviewers, matrimonial purposes...any tom dick and harry! Its OK as long as you yourself are not self-conscious about your looks, but when you become conscious of yourself, it gets irritating and sometimes disheartening.

And right from childhood, when because of your skin shade you are made to believe whether or not you are beautiful, that outlook and the low self-esteem & lack of confidence is not easy to break away with.
But I guess, God wanted people to be such and he had his own plans...so let be it!! No cribbing over this!! Be comfortable and confident. Everything will be OK.

Ciao!!!
