Relative Beauty Vs Absolute Beauty

What is beauty? Do we even consider ourselves beautiful?

Some of us may not be able to answer this question, because we don’t beauty[1]have a concrete definition.However, there are some of us who are able to answer this question based on our definition.But are our perception of beauty valid?

The world has conjured a superficial definition of beauty, and it’s sad to say many have defined our sense of beauty by these superficial concepts.This however has led to many social ills in our society.People are now using socially constructed notions such as' ‘ ugly’ to describe people or even categories people who do not measure up to the world’s standards of beauty.What people fail to realize is that our definition of beauty does not truly define what beauty is.

So, what is beauty?

Firstly, we have to state what beauty is not in order to fully understand what it is.Beauty is not the physical attributes of an individual, and it cannot be found in the genetic make up of an individual.In my opinion, beauty is not a physical thing but a spiritual thing.

Relative beauty.

How we view ourselves is important. It affects how we behave and even how we treat other people.People who view themselves in a relative way are very insecure,selfish and egocentric. Therefore, individuals who view there beauty relatively to physical attributes or the world’s standards are often times insecure and suffer low self esteem.The idea of relative beauty has caused many people to chase diets so they can acquire this ‘beauty’ and for those impatient folks who have the ‘quick fix’ mentality, choose plastic surgery as their means of attaining this level of ‘beauty’.

If we continue to to validate ourselves based on these relative ideas, we will lose ourselves and our true identity and then we will find ourselves transforming into little superficial monster.Do you think you’re beautiful? Be honest…..

Renewed

Its been awhile since I have blogged, but I’m back with a new theme and motivation.

No matter what our past mistakes were, God is able to make things new. Many of us are products of our environment, whether it was good or bad, its has impacted how we live our lives.Just remember God can make ALL things new!

I want to introduce you all to Rhema Soul, a very phenomenal group whose focus is on leaving their fingerprints on the lives of individuals. This is their testimony, check it out.

Trip Lee Vs Drake

Many of us have heard that Drake’s album dropped some time this week. For some strange reason, I have not been hearing a lot of buzz about this album,should I assume that it was not “all that”?!

Anyway, On June 22, 2010 Trip Lee will be releasing his third album which will be available nation wide. I have a feeling there will be a lot of positive feedback about this album.  If you don’t believe me then check out this song that was leaked a couple of days ago.

So, I guess after listening  to this track we already know who the Hip Hop sensation for this summer will be. Do I need to spell it out?!
