Illusion

“The guy over there is continuously staring at that pretty girl by the bar”, my best girl friend has been here for only five minutes and she is swooning over some guy already.

I rolled my eyes at her and said, “Why don’t you stop caring about which girl every other guy is ogling at? Just be yourself and enjoy!”

So this is the thing- people are always characterized by how they look. “A good heart is better than a good face” has still remained just a saying and we call this the 21^st century.

True, appearance can be perceived. You cannot carry a good heart or an intelligent brain over your head so that everybody can see but what happened to “Never judge a book by its cover”?

Good looks don’t always mean a fluent tongue or a heart of gold or even a decent manner. It’s a necessity to look beyond the facade people put up.

It is easy- very easy to be deceived by that mask but when we penetrate further and further into it, we realize the deadly mistake we are making by judging the person by their looks. A handsome man can turn out to be a serial killer and a gorgeous woman can be a sadist.

There is no point being superficial when you can explore different things about a person and like them for who they are and not how they look.
