"It hurts to be beautiful" my grandmother would say, and it does. Of course she meant that you had to endure the pain of a brush the pain doing all the grooming it takes to be a girl accepted. It took me a long time to realize I should take this literally. To be beautiful is painful, I thought the stares were because something was out of place. Yes beauty gets you in the door but does it walk you around the room into other doors. It can be a curse from the jealous onlookers that think they do not have the same value. There is something to the survival of the species in beauty and proportion. Then my grandmother would say "beauty is only skin deep". The inner beauty is greater and when you know thyself you are beyond the onlookers. Born in the image die in the light. "pretty is as pretty does" ugly is as ugly does. Don't act so ugly you handsome thing. How do we get beyond outer beauty. Evolve to the post human?
Define your BEAUTY!
