Beauty Is Seen Within

 

            Beauty is defined as a delightful quality associated with such things as harmony of form, color, truthfulness, or originality. The views and ideas we all have of beauty are different. The quote " Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder," is by an unknown author and shows what real beauty should be seen as. The person who wrote this is expressing that beauty, no matter what, is seen for who the person is and not their outward appearance. To say something so true must have took a lot of thought and understanding of what they truly believed. To get through life happily I believe we must believe this quote and understand people and love them for who they are. First impressions are said to be the most important, but are they? I don't think so. You must get to know someone for who they are and learn the beauty in them. .
             To support this quote I used various sources. Such as, the fable The Ugly Duckling, by Christian Anderson. The movie Beauty and the Beast, directed by Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise. The book, The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The song, "Unpretty" by TLC. The articles, "The eye of the beholder" by Trent and "The eye of the Beholder" by Bethany Patchin. The poems, "The Beauty of a Woman" by Maya Angelou, "Secrets of Real Beauty" by Sam Levinson, and "Beauty is in the heart of the beholder" author unknown. I also used a personal interview from Donny. All these sources explain or say what beauty really is, and I intend to prove that this quote is true.
             The Ugly Duckling, by Christian Anderson is a fable about a young duck that didn't look like all the ducks and wasn't treated fairly at first because of it. His mother and the others didn't take the time to look at him for what he truly was at first. Every place they would take him he was turned away because they all thought he was ugly. Finally they got to the swans and as the duck looked in the water he realized how ugly he was.
