Damn Unpretty.

I'm waging a war againt the social conception of beauty. I believe that the physical, however important, should not be a priority. Our bodys, our faculties and our assets are nothing but instrumets of who we are, to express, to communicate, to share.

On man heaven's influence works not so,
But that it first imprints the air ;
For soul into the soul may flow,
Though it to body first repair.
The Ecstacy ~ John Donne

But ultimately, it doesn't matter. Chanel, M.A.C, and Clinque, do not make you better then the next person. Guess, Mango and Amarni Exchange do not fix your life or give you self-worth. Nine West, Pretty Fit and Charles and Keith do not give you any basis for pride or arrogance.

So eat, enjoy the latest fashion, wear make-up to your hearts content and rejoice in being blessed with wealth! I'd just hate to see it taking over what's important, to see asthetic appreciation twisting into a basis for prejury, or an affection toward a way of life turning into an elitist, isolated obession. Let's keep to what will last and what has been proven to be of worth.

Nul:
I'm looking at some definations
pretty: Pleasing by delicacy or grace; attracting, but not striking or impressing
beautiful: delighting the senses or exciting intellectual or emotional admiration

I now understand. How can you, a strikingly beautiful girl be pretty?

Darn J, you just made my day.
