Beauty does not lie in color of skin. Skin is just an envelope of our body, which is in different colors. Nowadays, beauty is only meant as clean fair complexion, beautiful face and outer beauty. But, this is not true. Beauty lies in soul and mind. As someone said true, “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.” Outer beauty will become shrinker, wrinkled and scares as we go old. It will fade away with age. But what is inside you is more important. Someone should be called beautiful if he/she has pure and beautiful soul, beautiful thinking, caring nature, and do good deeds. Outer beauty is not long-lasting. No one will remember how beautiful you were. Only thing people will remember is that how good you were internally. So, internal beauty is eternal.
“A beautiful face will age and a perfect body will change, but a beautiful soul will always be a beautiful soul.”
A person should not judge by his skin color. A person should judge only by his character, nature, thoughts, and behavior in society, acts of kindness, gracefulness, and good deeds. Real beauty is the spiritual beauty.
“Exterior beauty without the depth of a kind soul is merely decoration.”
As someone said, “Rule your mind, or it’ll rule you”. It means a beautiful face may help you to look attractive, but with a beautiful mind you can conquer the world because it is the most powerful weapon. Today, society has changed the definition of beauty. Nowadays, a person with fair complexion is considered beautiful. Complexion is superficial beauty, and preferences for complexion vary from person to person. For example, in west people want to be dusky in complexion and in Asian countries fair complexion is the need of everyone because it is considered beautiful. Sale of fairness creams make it clear that to have a fair complexion is an obsession in our countries. Fairness creams are marketed clearly on TV, newspapers, social Medias and every kind of electric media shamelessly. People spend a lot in buying fairness creams and face whitening products and expensive therapies. There is a long list of people who excel in their lives and people remember them not because of their out beauty but because of their charity, humanity, selflessness, and modesty. For example, Abdul sitar EDI is still loved by people of Pakistan and all over the world because of his servings for human beings, his selflessness and his charity. There are so many other examples of such people who are remembered by the world because of their charity work, not because of their outer beauty.
“Beauty is not having the fairest skin or prettiest face, it is about having a beautiful heart.”
So, instead of giving preference to a fair complexion, one should look at the inner beauty which provides us perceptual experience, pleasure and satisfaction, inspiring us to perform good deeds and actions. A beautiful mind will always take you to the right way. A beautiful soul and mind will help us to achieve long term satisfaction and peace. Our real progress will occur when we get rid of such mindset that beauty lies in skin color. We should be more focused on our inner beauty, inner peace and satisfaction.
“No beauty shines brighter than that of a good heart.”
