The Realities Beyond Skin Deep

    In a society where appearances frequently provide the first impression, the idea of beauty plays a nuanced and intricate role in influencing how we live. We cannot underestimate the importance of appearance. As a woman, many walls can easily be destroyed if your beauty standards fit the person you are trying to convince. There are also some bitter realities you have to face about your beauty. I know these issues are so sensitive to confess, but never a truer word spoken. 


The Hardships of Beauty: A Realistic View

Superficial Judgments:

    Although attractive, beauty can result in superficial evaluations. Based only on appearance, people may draw conclusions about someone's personality, level of IQ, or other qualities. Therefore, in such a word, being blond is so hard especially if you are a person who loves academia and tries to be the best in her field.  In movies, we see a cliche of dump blonde beauty. This is just one example, there are many things like people who wear glasses are considered nerds or people who are fond of science fiction are antisocial. People love to categorize, just keep surprising them!

Pressure to Conform: 

    There can be a lot of social pressure to live up to predetermined ideals of beauty. It can be both from your physical appearance and style. If you dress up, people will find you exaggerated and laugh; if you are plain, they will call you unkempt. I guess the only escape is to be yourself because society will never stop demanding from a woman. When we come to your body, there is an unwavering quest for an idealized image. It may drive people to engage in unhealthy habits like strict diets or overindulgent exercise, which can tax their bodies and minds.

The reality:

    Rather than being recognized for their distinct personalities and abilities, beautiful people are frequently reduced to nothing more than their physical characteristics. When many women realize that the successes they experience and the job offers they receive are due only to being a woman or meeting the expectations of the employer in terms of appearance, their self-confidence decreases, they lose their perception of reality and begin to question the facts. Eventually, feelings of loneliness and a barrier to real friendships might result from this objectification.


The Easiness of Beauty: A Realistic View

Enhanced Social Experiences:

    People are drawn to attractive people, and beauty can foster a favorable social atmosphere. People focus longer on a visual that attracts their attention, right? This can enable easier and more pleasurable social interactions and give one a sense of comfort when handling a variety of social circumstances. For example, when you give a presentation, you will attract attention and everyone will listen to you because examining increases focus. We can think of it as using visual effects when convincing someone. That's why we say that attractiveness has the advantage of making friends easily and is an advantage for networking.

Confidence Boost:

    Having appealing feelings might make one feel much more confident. Being confident will be good for your mental health, so you will benefit from most of the things you do. An attractive face is deemed as a healthy person. A positive feedback loop where success fosters confidence and confidence breeds success can be created by pursuing personal and professional goals with this self-assuredness. Additionally, a sense of cultural acceptance can be gained by conforming to beauty standards, because people who do so may find it simpler to blend in and handle social situations.

Career Opportunities: 

    Research indicates that physically appealing people may have an advantage in the hiring or promotion process. This comfort in formal settings can lead to job progression chances and open doors. While we mentioned the negative side of this above, it is impossible to ignore the pros and the chances it creates. You can think of it like a lottery, it is possible to build your own empire by proving your intelligence with the luck you get with appearance. A beautiful appearance paves the way for good beginnings, but it is up to talent to develop it. I think that's why beauty and intelligence combined fascinate everyone. There are so many beauties, why aren't they all in their own empire? Because beauty really doesn't mean everything, and I think most of us are aware of its temporary nature.



    The thing we need to remember here is that beauty is relative. The beauty that someone dies for may be ugly for someone else. This is the magic of attractiveness because sometimes we are fascinated by an appearance without understanding it. Therefore, let's be careful to read from a wide range of perspectives, such as attractiveness and people's different perceptions of beauty, rather than pure beauty.

A Confession

       I heard that  the sense of belonging was discussed  a lot during this period, so my mask  was gradually falling away . My fellows started to realize me since I could not find enough strength to hide my bleeding. My wounds were bleeding  clearly  every time. I was laughingly denying it while making people watch this wound that I couldn't stop bleeding. I'm the happiest. Could you please shut up? I'm asking, can't we talk about being a little bit of everywhere and being completely nowhere? My dear friends, won't we say both death  farewells  and moving farewells again? Now  I  don't hesitate to say goodbye. I'm sorry, pure and delicate souls, to whom I bid farewell whenever I thought of them. I'm not in me. I wanted to love, but I  was not made  to love. I didn't become evil, I was made evil. Time became my prisoner , highways  became my home. I said goodbye to everyone , I  didn't solve the p...

The Human Paradox: Strength, Weakness, and the Undefined

More than an angel or a devil.    Man has always been created in pairs. He has two faces, seemingly more dangerous than a devil because the devil has only one face. That is why his life is spent always searching for his other half, be careful that our soul is drawn to whatever is missing (of course, this is a completely different topic). Man is complicated. He has an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other. Even if there is no devil or angel, this potential always exists. So much so that in many holy books, man has this potential, his sins are written on one side and his good deeds on the other. Can we know the limits of evil or good? Isn't it even more terrifying not to know this? What separates us from the devil or the angel is that we have a piece of both. The middle, that is, purgatory. Staying in purgatory is the greatest pain. Thus, man cannot define himself. The absence of clear definition fosters a profound sense of dislocation, as one struggles to find a p...

How does the human soul get ill-tempered?

    Not being able to take root makes a person angry. The answer to this question is quite simple. Being not understood also can make a person angry.  When  your all  vicissitudes with your agony are belittled by your  loved ones, humans can turn into an animal which has no control.  The people who enter our lives, especially at our turning points, should understand you if they  have an expectation  to be loved. Making extra explanations for the people who take root in your heart is a pointless effort for humans. And then, this struggle turns you into an impotent beast.  Even though talking is not  a  hard   exercise  for human action, explaining ourselves can consume our soul.  Just a glimpse should explain everything that burns you because it is not impossible for such a complex creature.  We are born to be loved,  to feel, to understand, and to  die.   Till  death, we should disco...
