Beauty Is Relative Or Is It ???

With all this hype about Miss Nepal going on i have started to wonder what beauty really is ? Well about Miss Nepal, i am neutral. I don't even understand what all the fuss is all about. I mean even if Miss Nepal is doing no good , it isn't doing any bad either. Why not let some guys with creative idea make some money. Plus the girls are all adult and i guess they know and realize what they are doing. Now comes the question of who decides who is beautiful ?

As it has been said since long "Beauty lies upon the eyes of beholder". But is it true that beauty really lies upon beholder. I know that there has been some scientific definition of beauty for years which has something to do with ratio stuff. This definition may hold truth but still beauty will be relative.I can guarantee that not all people will like the same thing no matter how good that thing be or how perfectly that thing fits the definition of the beauty. Beauty was always a thing that a person felt and that will be no different today or in the future. There cannot be an absolute definition of beauty as there is no such thing as absolute beauty. I may be beautiful for someone but at the same time the same me may be ugly in eyes of somebody else. Beauty is not only relative but also deceptive . It is also temporary. I mean something that may look beautiful may not be beautiful at all and/or will eventually turn ugly after some time.

I guess thats where the concept of inner beauty arises from. As beauty is temporary and is more of attraction thing and people want to be permanently beautiful, the concept of internal beauty helps them. You can remain beautiful forever by two way. One is by adjusting your thinking or the other is by adjusting your personality.

If you change your thinking that you are beautiful then you will always feel beautiful and thats what matters. But if you are a compliment hungry person and want other people to see you as beautiful then you can develop a pleasant personality (which will also of course be relative) and unless your personality degrades you are a beautiful person.

I follow the first technique.
