The Real Beauty

 What is beauty?

The real beauty is a relative term. It can be internal or external. Someone says beauty is found in the eyes of the viewer, not in any object or person. Some people define beauty as a typical beauty found in some physical features like long height or white compaction or wide bright eyes and so on and so forth.  In fact, all these things are not in the control of people; these are God-gifted. The real credit does not go to the people having these qualities. It is also true that it depends upon those people to present these qualities in a reasonable or unreasonable way. It defines the personality of the people. Another reality is that these are not permanent, in most of the cases. Time plays its vital role in it. A person may have a wonderful appearance at a time but after 10 or 20 years, the scenario can be totally changed. Very well said: “Personal beauty fades but the beauty of mind endures forever.”

Quality

Some qualities are inner ones like; softness or hardness, kindness or cheapness, patience or impatience, confidence or shyness, brightness or dullness, humility or proudness and innocence or cunning. These qualities are usually permanent or longer lasting. It was found that the physical qualities are very attractive and we cannot ignore them. Sometimes we cannot compromise on them. But if these are not coinciding with good inner qualities, these become dull and less bright with the passage of time. Then, the relations based on these physical qualities become awful or sometimes end soon after.

It is observed that we take a lot of care of our physical beauty by using different things like; cosmetics, soaps, perfumes, jewelry, expensive dresses and shoes etc. We invest a lot of our money, effort and time on these things. Our media encourages this trend by presenting advertisements, by presenting good looking people in dramas and shows. So, we have to give importance to all these things. It is a fact that all these things are also important and we cannot ignore them. Allah also says: “Allah is beautiful and He likes beauty.” But Allah also loves those who are good-hearted and pious.

Types

We live in this world where we have to deal with different issues and problems. We cannot leave many things; those are prevailing in our surroundings. So, we have to learn so much at the same time. How to deal with good or bad situations. Some people have to face extreme poverty, others have very comfortable lives. Both conditions have different demands on a person, male or female. Some people are born in very renowned families and others in notorious ones. Demands change accordingly on the people. Different qualities must be required for different situations, to make themselves successful in life and to present their better image.

Balanced Approach
