If one's so obsessed with physical beauty, what does one have
left when the veneer gets eroded, as it inevitably does, with
age?
Nada.
I learnt a precious lesson years ago. In one of my night classes,
there was a girl who was kinda... not-so-pretty. But you know what,
she started to look sooo beautiful to me when I realised what a
kind-hearted, gentle soul she was!
And then, there was this super-sexy, superstar look-alike girl in
the same class. All of us were in awe of her and needless to say,
the men all flocked to her and oogled at her, paid close attention
to her, treated her very well, etc. And in the end, when we
realised how mean, selfish, materialistic and vain she really was,
man, her beauty couldn't make up for her stink of a soul!
