If you think of the word beauty in isolation then it can be defined in terms of looks – the celebrities you see on the television don’t look like that when they get out of bed in the morning, they require time, effort and money with make up and hair stylists in order to convey to the world their take on what ‘beauty’ is. Beauty may also be defined in terms of intelligence – although this is much rarer. The beauty and art of being able to understand the complexities of the world and using this gift to propel yourself in your life career. What else can beauty be define as? We may decide that Beauty isn’t about yourself solely, but with the people around you and that having those people in your life will help fulfil you. Is this beauty?
What I found about this quote is that the use of the word ‘truth’ can uncover all of these definitions that beauty might hold. I interpreted this quote as beauty is being true to yourself. Although it is easy to conceal the negative things in your life, and the things you don’t want other people to know about, to do this to yourself mean’s you lack strength in your own body. If you know who you are – if you really know – then I believe this constitutes as upholding the gift of beauty.
