when archaic love clashes with two-sided morals...

this conversation was based on a discussion between myself and a friend through facebook. ive thought about writing these sort of ideas for a while now but never sat down to think...here is the beginning of these inner monologues:

my friend and i began talking about weddings and she mentioned physical beauty and the fear of what may come when she ages. these were my responses:

if love was based on physical beauty than what really matters...the person's true nature, then love itself wouldn't matter...

cause...of course with age people's physical features change, but their true nature will always remain just as beautiful...i mean if someone truly loves you then physical beauty is no important at all

well nobody is perfect. even the most brilliant people have flaws. people who use their knowledge to help others are more noble than people who glamorize themselves to impress people because when someone helps another, they are helping the world. when people make themselves look good, it's not to help anyone but themselves

they are hiding behind their beauty because aside from that, they can't help anyone who is starving or dying or anything but there are some people who have the looks and can aid the world, but if your knowledge alone can help someone that is more beautiful already

at the end she mentioned that while i use my personal morals to develop these notions, not many people feel this way. which is very true to say the least. everyone is bottled up within their own layers of makeup and muscle that we are not improving ourselves for our own benefit but merely attract others and gain their respect.

  1. as chosen ninja would say... true love is in the soul and physical beauty doesn't last. ;) If a person loves someone for the their physical beauty a relationship wouldn't last long but if they just love the person for who they are then it will last very long!
