Who are we to judge someone based solely on their looks? Human beings, unfortunately. When we, as humans, look at our neighbor or a random person on the street, we are always judging. It is so sad to think about judging a book by its cover, but the truth is, it is human nature. We are always looking for perfections. Yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but the picture in our mind of what "beautiful" is precisely is our own interpretation of perfection. (Before you continue, click here if you have not read part 1.)
The term "ugly" is the most abhorrent word in the dictionary. I believe it is that horrendous for this reason: in reality, it is what I call a "fake word". "Ugly" does not truly exist. Humanity uses it as a bullying word to describe someone that does not fit their mold of beautiful or perfect. Though some heartless people may disagree with my stance, I think that everyone is beautiful in their own way, no matter how corny that sounds. Since each individual person's uniqueness makes them beautiful, everyone fits the dictionary definition of perfection. Flawlessness is only reached by those who have the confidence to believe the voice in their head that is telling them they have reached it.

What I am currently reading: Nothing because I am lazy this week.
In other news: I have decided that my Quote-of-the-Week is now going to be more of a Quote-of-the-Month because I do not want to force myself to do one about a quote I do not find inspiring. In ultimate summation, Gillian, if you are reading this, I love you! You are the best sister ever and I am proud of you. :) Do not ever stop writing!
