What is beauty

As we all know, human beings have never stopped the steps of chasing beauty. But What is beauty? I am sure that everyone has particular understanding and standard to judge. With the development of our living standard, the measure in people’s mind of beauty has been changed accordingly.

Nowadays, our life is full of challenges. Everyone has to face the challenges in their best state. First of all, the first impression is of great importance. For example, when you are in an interview, the first impression may decide the final result. That means an attractive appearance plays a vital role in our daily life. We also call this kind of beauty “ physical beauty”. Physical beauty is what most of us make every efforts to pursue, a perfect figure, a good-looking face, and fashionable clothes will definitely make you outstanding in a crowd. Therefore, in my opinion, physical beauty is just like an advantage, if you own it, you will get more chances.

Everything that shines does not mean it is gold. A person who owns wonderful physical beauty does not means she is beautiful. Because there is another standard in judging whether a person is beautiful or not, which is called “ inner beauty”. Inner beauty is in dominant place. In our daily life, inner beauty is often regarded as a kind of reflection of lofty moral

character. For example, a person who is always ready to give a hand to those who need help, we call her a warm-hearted person. That means she has inner beauty. Actually, inner beauty is invisible, it is a feeling, it represents that whether a person has got the sublimation on his mind. In a word, although we are in a material world, we should not pay too much attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of mind. Inner beauty accounts for more proportion when judging a person whether she is beautiful. A man who owns both physical beauty and inner beauty can be called the real beautiful man.

What is Beauty

As we all know, it is human nature that all of us have never stopped the steps of chasing beauty. With the rising of our living standard, the measure in people’s mind of beauty has been changed accordingly. Nowadays, our life is full of challenges. Many people narrowly think that beauty is just having a lovely appearance, putting on good clothes, wearing prismy decorations and etcetera. But it seems to me, all these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearance. The real beauty should be that one is totally absorbed in his performance, or rather, the self-confidence. Life is not a rehearsal. Every moment is live. Yeah, each of us is only one among millions of others, but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique. Cultivating our individuality will transform our lives, making of them a kaleidoscope of new colors and textures.

Confidence in self is the first secret of success. Bacon once said that "to the most important things in life, the first is fearless, the second is fearless, the third is fearless."

Consider Sophia Loren, for instance, becoming a super star which astonished the world. Her great success is definitely related to her confidence. When all of the photographers said she didn't meet beauty standards and the director also advised her to go to cosmetic surgery, Loren insisted "I will keep my character. I won't change anything." Finally, her unique appearance and unrestrained temperament were recognized by the public. Her movie Two Women achieved great success, and won the Oscar for best actress awards.

As Loran said, each of us is distinctive inherently. Perhaps I’m so common in others’ eyes, but for me, if given a choice, I would prefer being ugly to living in a world where my own beauty is appreciated. I would rather be myself. I would contribute my individual and unique colors to creating a more diverse universe. Be myself, be more self-confident, and I believe in my success one day.

众所周知，人们从未停止过追逐美的步伐。随着生活质量的上升，人们心中对于美的标准也随之改变。

如今，我们的生活充满了挑战。许多人狭隘地认为美就仅仅是拥有一副可爱的外表，穿着漂亮的衣服，戴着五光十色的首饰等等。但在我看来，所有这些或多或少都仅局限于外表的美。真正的美应该是一个人完全地投入到自我中，更精确地说，是自信。 生活没有彩排，时时刻刻都是现场直播。的确，我们中的任何一个人都是千百万中的一员，但我们中的每个人都是一个与众不同的个体。发挥我们自己的个性会改变我们的生活，使它们成为美丽的万花筒。

自信是成功的第一秘籍。培根曾说：“人生中最重要的事，第一是无所畏惧，第二是无所畏惧，第三还是无所畏惧”。 以索菲亚·罗兰成为震惊世界的超级明星为例，她巨大的成功与她的自信是分不开的。当所有的摄影师都说她达不到美的标准，导演也劝她去整容时，罗兰却坚持说：“我要保持我自己的特性，我不会做任何改变”。最终，她独特的外表和奔放的气质赢得了大家的认可，她主演的电影《两个女人》获得巨大成功，她也因此或奥斯卡最佳女演员奖。

正如罗兰所说的那样，每个人与生俱来就是独特的。也许在旁人眼里，我很普通，但对我来说，如果让我选择，我宁可面貌五陋地生活在一个可以欣赏我自己的美的世界里。我宁可作为一个真实的自我而出现。我愿将自己独特的、与众不同的色彩奉献给多姿多彩的世界。做我自己，更加自信些，我相信我总有一天会迎来我的成功。
