RE: My body has long ago stopped being conventionally beautiful, but is that a problem?

Thank you so much for your kind words. After I wrote this post, another thought occurred to me. Why do we value beauty so much? Why do we not value strength, character, endurance above beauty? Beauty is not a redeeming quality, beauty doesn't help anyone. Also, you don't really have any control over whether you are beautiful. I just find it strange that we try to attain beauty rather than any other quality.

I am not sure I agree that we cannot control whether or not we are beautiful.
