Finally have some access to the internet in Pueblo. Had something on my mind that I wanted to share with everyone. An epiphany I've experienced.
It's said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This is very so true, in a sense. One could think that someone was the most beautiful individual they ever laid eyes on, while the person being regarded so highly can think of themselves as being the ugliest creature to ever show their face. It's all based on opinions, something we just oh so love as teenagers. So there leaves the question - what determines beauty? Yeah yeah yeah, this whole "perfect beauty formula" bullshit, that's fine and dandy, no, beauty isn't a science. Beauty is an emotion that we feel within the deep quandaries of our soul. Beauty is what defines our attraction and love towards one another.
However, I don't think anyone truly knows what beauty is. People make their own accounts of beauty, some agree with others, but no one truly knows. If they did, we wouldn't live in such a corrupt society that even imagines that being skinny to the point of near death is beautiful. Is it truly better to have lost at love then never to have loved at all if we don't even know the motive behind our attractions towards others?
This leads me to believe that when it comes to the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", we are all, as humans, blind.
