Have you ever heard the expression "Beauty is only skin deep?" I've thought about it for a while, and came to the realization of how true it sometimes is. Many people apply make-up to hide their true selves, making them "beautiful" for a few hours or a day. But eventually, what is inside your heart will shine through, and reveal your true face, either in this life or the next.
Beauty doesn't really matter. It's what is in your heart that matters. Think about it. If you take a few moments to make your inner self beautiful, to cultivate love and peace instead of hate and selfishness, you will radiate that which you are inside, a true, pure beauty, not one that is fake and skin-deep. A beauty from deep within.
Wouldn't it be a wonderful expression? "Beauty isn't skin deep...it's deeper than that."
So pray to God to make our beauty deep, and firm inside our hearts. I know for certain I am! :)
