All that above just for a sake of being deemed as beautiful for a minute? Does all that really worth it?
When I was younger I was never a happy kid, being rebellious myself and I am always alone. When I am alone I spent most of my time watching people. And I like to check on cute girls as well, the cute girls are always the popular Kid in school, despite the slightly less beautiful girl is their friend, people don't seem to pay much attention to them as they did to the cute girls. Even if the less attractive girls is better at heart compared to their rivals. What does all this tell me? It tells me a story that human being are superficial and shallow, they only see and admire from the outside without knowing the filling inside. All human being are beautiful and are the same as God created them.
