Inner Beauty



I watched the movie Beastly with a friend and I was so drawn into the story that it took me a few days to figure out just why I loved the movie so much. Was it that the actor the movie was centered on was attractive? Or was there something more to my interest? The movie is an excellent example of how biased some people can be. Judging others based on looks alone is easy to do as it is looks that first attract you to another. However, that is no way to start a relationship. Beastly is an excellent example of how outer beauty may be what attracts you at first, but it is the inner beauty of another that should be the basis/foundation of a relationship. A relationship based on looks is shallow and lacking of any emotional connection, it is solely physical attraction that bonds you. Where would physical attraction take your relationship in ten years when your looks begin to change? The relationship would deteriorate and crumble at the slightest touch. A relationship fuelled by inner beauty however is one created on an emotional and intellectual connection, so is therefore stronger. If you are connection emotionally to another based on who they are as a person and not on what they look like, than you will be much happier in your relationship. Where could that take you in ten years? It is impossible to predict the future, but if a relationship is stronger when created on more than appearances than it is possible that the relationship could withstand many hardships and arguments that could arise. For it is not the appearance that connects two people in a relationship, it is a common emotional bond that ties you to another with an indestructible thread.
