bane beauty does exist but not in the way everyone thinks. you can't just stumble on beauty, you have to find it in yourself. all that you see, hear, touch, smell, and taste is in your own mind. it is your imagination. you are beauty and the more beautiful you find the world around you then the more attractive a person you are. 000122

power through passion An infinite complexity of form and substance reduced to elegant simplicity - a human body is billions of ugly unremarkable cells but together they are a thing of wonder for a few short years - until nature reclaims the body into its even greater whole... and that is beauty also. It could be love, a million and two biochemicals fizzing in the soul, but it feels simple and right and true. It could be a billion fiery nuclear furnaces with one simple planet where life exists - but all those fiery balls of gas were needed to make that one beauty we call our home. 000220

Midnight Bliss lies within, they say. then why do ppl try to impress everyone else with their outer beauty if it doesn't really matter. ppl these days are so judgemental. why can't they just be accepting and openminded like some of us are. by being yourself, you are setting an example to others...accept the beauty of diversity.
embrace the beauty of individuality

real: everything else is just a
quotidian illusion.

i love beauty, more than i could ever
but in words. i adore beauty.

but i feel seperated from it. whenever
i feel i have grasped it for a moment,
be it in friends, or girls, or nature,
or poetry, no sooner is beauty gone...

i miss it. but at least is still no
it is eternal and divine...

tazfab our sense of the matter is wrapped up in teenage traumas. there comes a point in adolescence when you start to imagine that some people are born with every molecule in place. every high school boasts its elite squad of lookers: sparkling teeth, merciless anatomy, sunny filaments of hair--even their cuticles are kind of interesting. between classes, they parade down the halls, trooping their supremacies like clydesdales. everybody else is supposed to feel like a waste of protoplasm. that sort of thing can complicate your feelings toward physical beauty for the rest of your life.

confident or not, this is what befalls all of us sonner or later.
skin gets papery.
spots appear on hands, arms, calves...we're no longer one smooth creamy surface.
hair, moisture, bosom disappear.
we start looking a little neuter in photographs...you can't tell the girls from the boys.
a lot of that stuff can be fixed, thank god.

illya keats said it best:
truth is beauty, and beauty truth.

forget people for a moment. beauty is in god's creation; beauty is in human creation. beauty is in the fact that the world we live in works, despite its complexity.

From the wrapping of a gift
To a feather scarf
From freckles on someones face
To a person you see in the hall
From a battered old pair of shoes
To a green tree against a pale blue sky
From a lilac scented candle
To the misty rain outside
From you
To me.....In everything, there is someone who calls it pure "beauty"

rollins I know a woman who is a staggering beauty. Anatomically crippling.
It's not her fault. It's just the way she turned out. There's nothing
she can do about it short of dressing in a sack, and even then-wow, what
a sack. When I walk with her, tires screech. Personally it scares me.
I asked her what it was like being so beautiful. She took it as an
insult at first. I told her I really wanted to know. She said that she
gets threatened a lot. She gets told that she's a bitch by people she's
never met. She has been physically assaulted a few times by men. She's
been hit on by her dentist, neighbors, teachers, you name it.
What happens to her is an interesting spin on where society's at. If
you have something someone else hasn't got, you are admired, worshiped,
and hated. All at the same time. Those who are "beautiful" lose a lot
of their human rights. They are expected to be sheepish with wolves and
grateful to those who compliment them. They are supposed to be gracious
and good-natured about the way they are treated. They are supposed to
be objects: something to be looked at and wondered about. Do they eat
the same food as other people? Do they get lonely? No way, they're
beautiful. Beautiful people are never lonely because everyone wants to
be with them. Some people see beauty as some kind of talent, like the
talent of a musician or a painter. What a burden.
In a way I feel sorry for my friend. She takes a lot of undeserved shit
from people. She also happens to be one of the kindest and most
sensitive people I've ever met. She knows several languages and has
great taste in music. These attributes make her attractive to me.
I asked her what she likes in a man, in order of importance.
Intelligence, a sense of humor, and kindness were highest on her list.
She said nothing of how Mr. Right looked. I asked her about that and
she said it would be great if he was handsome, but it wasn't all that
important. Maybe that counteracts what gets said when the normal guy
walks by with the stunning woman. One guy says to the other, "He mustbe rich."

FreakFly One true beauty I have in life.
Standing next to her I'm warm inside.
On my knee I look at her face.
I grasp her hand to take her away.
Trembling my heart pounds aloud.

Becki, I ask her to be my wife.
To her rules in life I will abide.
She has intelligence, and grace.
I'll make her happy till the end of day.
I make no mistake to make her proud.

Why does love feel like a knife.
How did we get on this terrible ride.
Are her feelings gone, not a trace.
What have I done who can say.
Is beauty in life really just a cloud.

hannelore I am often told that I am 'so beautiful'.
Some would say what a wonderful compliment that is.
I see it different.
Why can't people tell me how intelligent and intriguing I am.
I don't want to be known for beauty, for it is only a physical characteristic that my parents blessed me with.
I have travelled the world, studied foreign cultures...why aren't people intested in my life, rather than my appearance.
I have so much to share with people, but it seems to me that people only want to use me as their trophy.

sleepyconnie beauty. whats good of it anyways if everyone hates you for it. when i look into the mirror, i see someone attractive, but not beautiful. when i walk down the street,i get stared out but im so used to it it doesnt even bother me anymore. in fact, i loved the way i looked. but what good is it if the people that are closest to you hurt you the most because they are envy or jealous of your physical exterior. i cant help the way i look. yet its the way i loook which causes people to not like me. bc something in them drives them to jealousy or selfishness and in the end, im always hurt. what good is beauty if your best friend hates you for it. and she treats you like shit bc she thinks you are perfection. im not perfection. in fact, im far from it. no one is perfect. especially not me. i dont ask to be put on a pedestal, yet i am. in more ways than one. why do people look at me and see beauty and perfection. and they ask me how do i do it. how am i so perfect. well i dont know bc i dont feel that i am. and they think you lead the perfect life because you have something they think they dont have themselves. beauty. what good is it.. if i come home at nite and cry myself to sleep. what good is it, if i feel like an object, what good is it, if your best frens turn their back on you bc they envy you so much.

what good is it?





beauty is from within and when it shines through,
there is beauty on the exterior.

beauty is from the within.

Of kicking myself in the teeth

beauty is the most complicated concept to grasp. beauty is in the eye of the beholder, yes, but it is also only skin deep. beauty comes in different shapes in sizes, beauty comes with emotion. it makes you want to live, and it makes you want to die. beauty is lethal and nessacary.

drinman And I think I knew then
What I can only wonder at now
You were too beautiful
And it was too much
And now I've been reduced
To simply worshipping
As graved images
The stills
You stole
Of our scenes.
And maybe I can't get back
What was never mine
If all we ever had
Was our love
Each other
And time
But just so you know
My memory has not faded:
Even now
At the mere thought of you
I get lost in your eyes
Again and again
Your beauty remains too much for me to take in all at once.
