We always say that inner beauty is far more important than our outer beauty....?

Question

As Filipinos, and as a religious country...Do you live up to this statement or its just cliche?

Answer 1

I did not say that...

Answer 2

i give til it hurts if that's an inner beauty, i don't really know.  it comes naturally i can say and sometimes it's a disadvantage coz you tend to be naive and you can't think bad about other people.  believing that every person has that hidden kindness inside their heart.  

Answer 3

have you heard the joke about this? normally those who says this line are "pangit" hehe

but not true. i still believe that inner beauty rules than the physical one. ("pageant ba ito?")

no matter how pretty someone is if she doesn't know how to deal with people properly or treat others fairly then its useless..

the attitude matters and brains of course.  

Answer 4

For some it would only be cliche. Some take it as a joke. But as for me, it boils down to how to treat others really. It doesnt boil down to religion as far as I know. It comes down to your own principle. Beauty is very subjective, what is beautiful here in our country might be be considered undesirable in other countries. But whats worse is for people who might think they are beautiful but have a diva attitude. Id rather go with people who are just not concerned too much about their looks but are more in tune with their character.

Do I live to the statement? Well I do try my best really. :). It's a constant struggle to be concious of what you are doing at the present moment.  

Answer 5

Oh yes Ms. Jaimee, I truly believe that the beauty of our soul far outweighs (and outlasts) the importance of our physical beauty.   When there's true goodness within us, this radiates outwardly.  And it is only then that we could say, we are beautiful outside too.

Answer 6

JUST a d**n statement to make someone feel good.. lol..  

Answer 7

i personally think it's true. i am easily put off by people with pretty faces who once they open their mouths have only got filthy or nonsense things to say.  on the other hand, with someone who may not be as beautiful on the outside, but with a good clean heart, his/her appearance wouldn't really matter.  of course there are also those who are beautiful inside and out!

Answer 8

Hummmml lots of people spend their...whole life to look perfect. There's small number of people that I've known of spending time to achieve inner beauty.

Answer 9

actually, I don't really look at someone who is really beautiful, I mean, we like beautiful faces, but the inner beauty remains far more important... I just like someone who is simple, but a good-hearted person...

Answer 10

its expensive to look beautiful outside with make-up. it doesnt cost a penny to be beautiful inside.

Answer 11

yes we did,,mostly...
