North of Beautiful


So there's this crazy fact about "the North". I mean, can you believe that in reality, there are actually two Norths. One of them is the true north, which is in the direction of the north pole and then there is the second north which is the magnetic north which shifts towards west about forty kilometers every year. It is easy to use compass to denote the magnetic north, hence, the official north is the magnetic north which is indicated by the magnetic needle of a compass. So you must be wondering, why am I suddenly writing random scientific shit. Well, you'll very soon find out why.

When we call someone beautiful, we usually have some criteria on the basis of which we judge them. I mean, truly there are lot many people who we call beautiful and lot many people who we call ugly. My question is how can we decide whether a person is ugly or beautiful? Truth is beauty has no criteria. I mean, who says only blonde and skinny is beautiful. The definition of beauty does not include all that. Who are we to give beauty a definition and who are we to decide who's beautiful and who is ugly? 

That fat kid in your class who loves cheese burger is also beautiful. Maybe not to you, but go ask his mom, or his dad, or his girlfriend (in case he has one). And that dark, lanky girl who sits next to you is also beautiful. Maybe they don't match your definition of beauty but that doesn't makes them ugly. And if you have ever called anyone ugly, then fuck yourself. You have no right to tell anyone that they are ugly, because everyone is beautiful.

So beauty is lot like "the north".To make it easier, we judge people on the basis of stupid beauty criteria, just like we think that north is where the magnetic needle points. But true beauty is like true north. It's misunderstood and most of the time, it remains undiscovered. Just like we confuse the true north with magnetic north, we also confuse true beauty with the physical criteria we have. In reality everything is beautiful. So next time, if you feel you're ugly then remember that you're again thinking about the magnetic north. Remember that everything in this fucking world, including you, was made with perfection. Everyone is beautiful to someone. That's the true north of beautiful. (Now, you probably get why I was writing about that 'north' science shit)
