I'm working on a new post right now about beauty, since it has become such a fascination of mine. People are so quick to determine what is ugly, but have the most difficulty explaining what is beautiful. I've just about come to conclude that it is all just nonesense, a concept that is futile to define. Everyone is beautiful AND ugly simultaneously because neither words truly exist. It is a shapeshifter and a hallucination. To borrow from a cheesy quote, "Nothing is true, therefore everything is possible."

I love the different ways you wear that AA dress. It looks so comfy and makes me wish I had it! Alas, I am broke...

i love the AA dress. the whole beauty/ugly just reminds me of the secrets thread.. but i have to say i think you're bang on point there. i think we'd be better off not having bodies sometimes. if we were all just a consciousness.

i love this.... maybe something that's easier to say if you're beautiful, or past beauty? there's a part in on beauty where a character wishes her daughter would stop fussing over her looks, because we all end up the same anyway.... however, i do think a combination of true beauty, a stunning attitude and your own confident style can be something that will last a long time.i have to think about this more now
