i was just sitting in my dining room listening to the TV that was on in the other room... and a very interesting commercial came on. the words that caught my attention were "inner-beauty is important, but outter-beauty is even more important." make-up commercial. go figure.
what is the world coming to, that inner-beauty would be said less important that outter? i suppose with the magazines that contain airbrushed, unrealistic women, it's been implied that this is what the media is trying to teach us all along. to hear it out loud just adds the icing to the cake.
i suppose the question that i really would like to know is why do we tell ourselves this? sure, it sells the product, but people are actaully believing it. living it. we are so beautiful... even if we don't have the most cooperative, smooth hair; prettiest, sparkliest eyes; thinnest, tannest body. we are made in the image of God. He created us, not to nessicarily look like Him, but to act like Him. live like Him. let Him live and move through us.
we are beautiful people, and it's not because of our physical appearance.
now, i need a pickle.
