LOOKS

Today’s topic is about looks. What is good looking? Beautiful? Pretty? Handsome? Cute or sweet? I shall classify them all as beauty. I think there are 2 types of beauty. The first type is those whom everyone agrees that he/she is a good-looker. Someone who has that special feature on their faces to be outstanding, in a positive way, of course. The other type is without a guideline, a fixed definition, more of “beauty lies in the eyes of its beholder”. One person may think that this lady is drop dead stunning, but to another person, she maybe too much for him to take it.

So when a person tells me that, “hey, I met my wife at blah blah blah… well, it’s love at first sight. I knew it gonna be her.” At the back of my mind I will like, “Ya right, more like lust at first sight.” Humans are complicated creatures. We can react to things by either emotionally or logically. In the above case study, I believe that he reacted emotionally.

When a guy sees a beautiful lady, what is the first thing in his mind? I seriously don’t know. The most politically correct answer is: get to know her. But I say, the truth is deeper than its surface. So, that brings me to a question. Is good look a blessing or a curse? What people see is whatever on the outside, what about the inner self beauty? Gone. Just take a good look at our famous Paris Hilton. No doubt she is blessed with good looks and nevertheless, rich (yes, I do mean filthy rich) parents. But it does not seem help much to build what’s inside. She is simply a blond bimbotic celebrity-wannabe. She might score high on the outside, but whatever beneath those foundation, mascara and perfume, it’s empty and hollow. But hey, still, everyone can’t deny that she does have looks (very personal point of view) and guys flock to her (maybe more interested in the $$). So whether good look is a blessing or a curse, it all depends on your fate and how you handle situations.
