Pretty Or Beautiful - What Do You Choose To be?

listening to music in the balcony

So I am sitting here in the comforts of an easy chair parked in my balcony, pleasuring the cool and fresh breeze to the sound of the acid rock tracks by The Doors, the Kings of Acid Rock. It's getting harder for me to stop my head being banged, while listening to these awesome staggering tracks. It's making me feel as if my head doesn't belong to me anymore. It has become so adamant. Today there is something different about how I feel. Maybe it's just my hair or my inner self trying to get out of this vicious circle of bewildering thoughts and the deep, growing-on-you type of music.

We all want to reach somewhere or do something that is different and prove ourselves to the world, whether by physical appearance or by intellect/knowledge. We generally have this feeling of competition to be better than others perhaps, what about the soul?

Do we ever even try to improve our souls or do we ever promise ourselves to help someone in need? In this rush hour type of life we are supposedly forgetting who we are and what those small things are that make us humane. The whole world wants to look pretty and attractive (from the outside) however, what about being beautiful from inside!

I have not always known that pretty and beautiful are two different things just like all of us. Perhaps as time passed by I learned things and what the world is all about. It became clear to me.

Pretty is what you look to the world from outside whereas, beautiful is what you feel from both inside and out. When you feel beautiful from inside it reflects on you from the outside as well. So putting on your mascara and your LBD isn't always going to work for you unless and until you feel beautiful from the inside. You become what you think of yourself to be. Sometimes in life.., to please others and to make them like us we tend to forget what and how beautiful we are. In this mean materialistic world everything is temporal and only the pretty stay, beautiful is somewhere off-track and in between the lines.

As I mentioned earlier, we all want to be different, alas! bring out your "oh so beautiful inner self" which is as different and unique as every color of the rainbow or maybe as colorful as you want your wardrobe to be. So what do you choose to be?
