Where are we heading?

‘Beauty is deep within’

We have all heard this but is it really true when it comes to our tinder generation? The right left swiping which is actually just purely based on how good looking the other person is obviously ignorant of the ‘real beauty’ as a concept. Doesn’t this prove we are all just hiding behind our insecurities, just basking in the fake attention from the opposite sex based solely on the genes we have only inherited and have no contribution to what so ever.

“Oh yeah she is pretty but fat”. “Oh yeah, she has nice features but she’s dark” . “Oh yeah, he is a nice person but isn’t that good looking”.

So is beauty really deep within?

Everyone today is always on the lookout for who has the hottest body, who has the prettiest face, or who has the most money. But what they forget is that bodies change, beauty fades and money goes. So what actually remains? You. The person you are, how you make others feel around you, your vibe. That’s what stays and that’s what matters.  Not how many likes you get on your Instagram uploads, not the brands of clothes you wear and definitely not the amount of matches you get.

So till when are we going to keep judging people on how good looking they are or how rich they are instead of actually focusing on how beautiful they are as a person, how passionate they are for changing the world for better or how big their hearts are. It is high time to stop this and go back to the old school ideas of what love is, what life is, what matters in the long run ,how you set your priorities because they had it right! We just got lost on the way and we need to come back on track.

And how will that happen?

It’ll start from me, It’ll start from you. When you decide to not give in to the stereotypes, when you stop caring about what other people think of you, when you stop lowering your standards and settling for the second best, when you start accepting yourself for who you are, a revolution will come and the world will change.

So my fellow people from this tinder swiping generation, can you please stop for a second and think about what you are doing in your life and if this is what you really want forever? If it’s not, stop and wait and find your that one person in this messed up life who shares the same values, who believes in the same idea of love because I know they are out there and I know they are tired too of listening to the one night stand stories. Don’t give in to other people’s judgmental comments, don’t settle. You are you and that is your biggest superpower, my friend!

Go out there, break the shackles and wait for real love to come to you. I promise it’ll be worth it in the end 🙂

One thought on “Where are we heading?

  1. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    What this means is that it all depends on what the beholder is looking for. If it’s instant gratification without the need for a long-standing commitment, looks will obviously be the only criteria, both for men and women.

    If, on the other hand, the beholder is looking for a meaningful relationship, then without doubt values, life goals, aspirations, personal and social traits, etc., will be more important.

    Humans have always been slaves to the senses…We need to accept the fact that no matter what we say, at the end of the day we all make choices based on what appeals to our senses. It’s sad but true, but those who have good looks have it easier than the others.
