Ugly Is Blind

The answer is yes. Ugly is good. Ugly is new. Ugly is you.
Do you see what I mean?

Never have I heard a definition for ugly, at least not one that can fit the emotions of pain, pity, and worthlessness into a sentence.

ug-ly [ugh-lee]
-adjective

1. very unattractive or unpleasant to look at; offensive to the sense of beauty; displeasing in appearance.

So, now can you tell me? Is there anything in this world worthy of this description? Do you see anything that could bring a smile to tears?

Again, the answer is yes. This world we live has set the standards of impossible. We strive for perfection, and can’t settle for less. The day we die, we die in discontent. Why? No one noticed your outfit, your hair, or your pathetic attempts at being… beautiful.

Well, I have one last thing to say:

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and so I hope someday I will find someone who can’t see ugly.
