Every day morning we look into the mirror and observe ourselves from head to toe. So many questions flood in our mind. Is my hair style ok? Does the dress suit me? Does the shirt match with the pant? The colour suits me or not? How many pimples and wrinkles I have got today on my face? Is my moustache well trimmed? Do I need to shave today? How do I look more beautiful and attractive? Etc.
Many of us can spend hours and hours in front of mirror to change our outer personality. We groom the physical body to look more beautiful and attractive. Why? There are two reasons. First we want to look good and the second; most importantly we want people to accept us.
But by only grooming our outer personality, can we say with surety that people will accept us and we will be more beautiful than before? Does only outer personality make all the difference?
Then... why if we are sad, we don’t look happy? Why if we are stressed we don’t look relax? This means that our outer and inner personality has close connection. But only in grooming our outer personality and spending the hell lot of money and time to be attractive, we forget our inner selves. Have we ever thought of grooming our inner selves? Have we ever spent hours and hours in looking deep within? How contradictory it is...!!! We are more conscious about our outer personality and forget our inner one...!!!
The outer beauty will never give us eternal happiness but the inner beauty will. We spend hours and hours to groom our outer personality and we never think that our inner beauty also needs our attention. Our inner beauty is very important as it reflects on our entire personality but we are mesmerised with the outer beauty so much that we don’t look within...!!! What is the use of putting all the artificial things to our outer personality and trying to look beautiful? Is this the beauty all about???
The real beauty is beauty within...
We need to look deep within and make our inner selves more beautiful. For this, we must have a mirror which helps us to show our inner self. The mirror can be anybody- Father, mother, sister, brother, better half or our mentor, guru or may be our best friend. Do we ever feel shy in front of mirror; asking how we look when we see it? Do we ever try to hide our pimples and wrinkles in front of mirror? No...!!! We closely look at them and try to rectify them. Similarly we should not hide anything from the person who is mirror to us. We should never feel shy; instead we should be honest and truthful. Sometimes our thoughts may sound stupid, ridiculous or childish to them but at the end of the day we will be happy and satisfied for being honest with them and not hiding anything. Even if we commit any mistake; we should accept it in front of them. They will show us the right path. They are always there to help us, guide us and protect us. This will surely help us to groom our inner selves. We will be better human being. We will grow and learn every day. But one thing is sure and we must always remember; we should be totally open and frank with them. We should trust them completely which will build strong relationship. It will blossom every day every moment.
Let’s ask ourselves...Do we have anyone who helps us to identify and rectify our mistakes? Do we have anyone who recognizes our weaknesses and guides us how to improve them? Do we have anyone who is there to show us the right path and direction? Do we have anyone who introduces us to our real self and helps us to make it more beautiful? Do we have anyone who cares for us and accepts us as we are but still wants us to grow and develop? Do we have anyone who leads us to journey within? Do we have anyone in our life who is mirror to us...?
Let’s identify them and groom our inner selves to be more beautiful and attractive. This will help us to grow not only physically or mentally but spiritually as well.
Let’s have a mirror in life and start our journey within and be more beautiful.............!!!
