Day 14 ;

Don't judge a book by its cover


Ever heard of this proverb?
Don't say no. Just say yes.

How many of us judge everything  based on its appearance?
Most of us.

Don't tell me that you DID NOT at all. That's a lie, a very bad lie. Even kids do that, all the time. But THEY, can be forgiven for what they have done, cos' they haven't reach their maturity yet, but THEY can be taught, to learn, to improve, and to grow.
Even YOUNG adults these days tend to conclude someone based on the outer look.
Do we actually know that the real beauty that you can see in one person is by
personality, not appearance? And do we even know that inner beauty is more valuable than any outer beauty?
Gorgeous or handsome isn't really the quality to find the partner of your life, what's important is the heart. The kind-hearted, loving heart with pleasant personalities.
How often can we find a beautiful person with wonderful character? In the other way round, how many times can we see people with a totally loving and pretty look but awful attitudes?

Girls, especially loves to dress themselves up, making them look like some kind of celebrities. Not the simple gromming, but OVER-dressing. What I meant was, they do the same thing everyday, showing off how deep they know about being trendy. Camwhore, and get thousands of likes. What do they get at last? Attention.
Rapists love attention seekers.  Sorry to say that, but usually, they ended being the headline of the newspaper. It's pretty depressing though :/

So, folks!
Love ourself FIRST more than anyone does. People who know us well (no matter our best buddy or a true friend) , love us for what we are, not for what we are not. Don't you agree with that?
And WE! must search for people like that to be the partner of your life. Not merely love us because we're good-looking.
There's a story behind every person and THERE IS a reason behind why they're the way they are. For that, we must think and understand but NOT judge blindly by what we see, or feel. We may not know the real pain, how they actually struggle in their life. 
Therefore, we should treat everyone (including the disabled, elderly people or even kids) with full respect, without discriminating them. Not everyone is exactly perfect and one thing we must know is ALL OF US HAVE FLAWS. 

@Takeo Shawn : Beauty is nothing if you have a rotten attitude and personality. It's like a book with a good cover but with senseless story.

We shouldn't prejudge the worth or value of something, by its appearance alone. We can't merely come to a conclusion based on what can only be seen. 

Be nice to every people you meet. 
They might have battled something that you have no idea about. 
Beauty gets the attention, but the personality captures the heart.
