Life is beautiful. Yesterday I wrote about young girls who believe that with make-up, the right clothes and hair, they are more beautiful or look older. I would like to tell everybody that they are just simply beautiful as they are. Everybody has a different perception on beauty and this is how it should be. What TV and media tries is to create one certain type of person, one haircut, one shape of face, one way of talking and behaving as good and another as bad. That makes it easier for them to sell their shows, movies and of course their advertisement. But that doesn’t work in real life and it would be very boring.
Everyone is unique and everyone’s life is unique. There will never be anybody who is 100% like you. Not even identical twins are identical. But instead of seeing it as a competition on who is more beautiful, more intelligent or simply in any way better, you should just enjoy the variety. Be happy about the many different opinions, points of view and physical differences in life. Value life and its diversity. The world is only beautiful because we all are different from each other.

I agree that there is beauty all over the world! It is amazing to see faces and varieties across the planet and how many different colors, shapes, and sizes of people there are. The other night, we were talking about how mixed-race people often have very beautiful features (such as Asian-African or Indian-European). This is very true-- the varieties and unique looks continue to stun with beauty! But as we inter-mix the globe and races mix with all other races, I wonder if many centuries from now, everyone will look similar because we have all blended together! A melting-pot indeed.

I really think you hit the nail on the head when you pin this down to marketing. Which, surprisingly, so much of so many cultures in influenced by. some of it is tradition of course, but marketing is what really tells us what beauty should be. I often find myself sitting close to someone and seeing new beauty in them, physically, in a different way many times. Beauty is in constant movement and is in so many more places than we are willing to look. Looking pretty is different than being beautiful.

Create your perception with a free mind. Prejudiced ideas of other people's advices can prevent amazing experiences.
SourceWhen women exhibit their body to show freedom and independence, they reduce themselve to the body and contribute to gender inequality.
SourceBe careful when a guru suggests to charge your mobile phone in front of his picture!
SourceWhen shopping becomes an addiction like gambling, when your house gets more and more full, when you walk in the city and realize that you already have everything in those shops full of useless things, it is time to rethink on what you spend your money.
SourceWhenever you limit God to certain actions or places, corruption starts because there will be someone who owns the place or who sells services for getting closer to God.
SourceIf you wish for God to exist, he is there. Our wishes create God.
SourceReligious scriptures are only pieces of literature that have been noted down by people in the past and should not have any relevance or importance today. Read them word by word and you will get to know their crazy and cruel content.
SourceAtheists say ‘God is only a thought’. But what is wrong with having a good thought?
SourceSexual feeling is just innocent and a part of your body. With your body growing, your feelings also get more mature with age.
SourceIf someone refuses to change while you yourself are developing, it can happen that you grow apart. At that point of life, you meet new people who can go along with your new view on the world. It is fine and a part of the change which we accepted in our lives.
SourceIt is difficult to believe in a God who sits in heaven, whom you cannot see, who doesn’t talk to you, whom you cannot touch, who is adorned with silver and gold in the temples and decorated with flowers, who sometimes gets stolen by thieves, which he cannot do anything about. If he cannot protect himself, how would he protect you?
SourcePeople prefer making religious donations rather than charity donations to secure a seat in heaven by giving to a preacher or temple.
SourceIf you follow outdated scriptures, you would have to kill a ridiculous amount of people in our daily lives, most of the population would have a ‘painful doom’ and women would behave and be treated very wrong. It just does not fit anymore.
SourceYou don’t need to pretend to be younger than you are. Don’t you see the beauty in so many old people? Your beauty doesn’t come from the outside and doesn’t change if you have a few wrinkles. Be who you are, you are beautiful!
SourceA lot of doctors close their practices on Thursday due to superstition! People and doctors both think a doctor's visit on a Thursday means another doctor's visit later! They study, they learned a lot of science and they know about the body, its diseases and cures – but that does not keep them from believing that Thursdays are bad days!
SourceReligion is a firm and strict structure whereas spirituality is soft and flowing. Religion presses into clear and edgy shapes whereas spirituality makes round and soft. Religion comes from the mind and spirituality from the heart.
SourceSexual desire is natural in a healthy body and mind. Not having sexual interest is a sign that something is not right.
SourceA miraculous healing is usually not any miracle but just the natural strength of the body. The full credit goes to the healer who pretends that it was him who could heal.
SourceWhen we grow up we are taught that we should be careful whom we trust. So how could it be right to have faith in God, someone whom you never even met? Sometimes you even doubt whether he exists at all! So is it really a great idea to have faith in such a person?
SourceDon’t you think that the basic reason for you to believe in religion, to follow a guru or to be a member of a sect is actually fear and even greed?
