The Beauty Within

What's your opinion about her?

Am I looking good? A question that haunts most women Lin their lives. An honest answer is what they look for. But can you really be honest with her is something questionable. Do women have honest opinions about their looks? Do they ever get honest opinions? Do we need to pay so much attention to how we look rather than who we are? How would you react if someone said you have put on weight? How would you react if someone said what's up with your style these days? So how do we define the beauty of a woman?

Since childhood, we all have been told tales about beautiful princesses and the famous line that read, "mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?" The tales in which every princess needs a prince to set things right. Years passed by till the girl realised the prince was there in awe of her beauty, in return for something he would get. There are so many events and pageants which speak about beauty. Strange it is but true that there is always a man who sits there to judge her looks and test her intelligence as well.

But amazing it is to see a woman too seated next to him to judge a beauty being one herself. But she is not there to judge her looks. She is there to see how far she has come with her zeal and effort to where she stands confident today. A woman speaks out loud what makes her what she is today. It is a woman who easily passes on the crown and title to the new because it is again a woman who takes the title. What she earns is not only because of looks but also what she says.
