Beautiful post, @tarazkp. Congratulations. I feel that a part of you got naked here. Of course your wife and daughter are beautiful, but you must have something beautiful as soon as your wife noticed you and not someone else. That something unique, special, surely makes you beautiful in her eyes. As far as images and this generation, I think that social networks, the Internet have contributed to this fallacy regarding beauty, not to mention the amount of filters that they can use to fit into the patterns of beauty and become unrecognizable, get lost in the shadows, as you say. A good photograph is capable of capturing external beauty, but a good model is capable of expressing her inner beauty. Your wife is a beautiful model. Beautiful night, @tarazkp
I feel like most of these people use filters kind of like putting on a fake "mask" ; to hide their true selves.
It must be hard to see yourself so often in the mask, but then also have to look in the mirror at something quite different. Living a lie is probably difficult and takes energy to maintain.
I have no idea what she sees in me.
Filters and angles are like wearing black is slimming. People look for ways to look their best, without actually being their best. They try to look like others, without ever finding out who they themselves are.
