Lila BowenShe was ugly, was all they'd told her. But she didn't find them beautiful, so what did it matter?
About This Quote
To many people, the word beautiful means something entirely different than what they mean by it. For most people, beautiful can mean whatever is most desired and pleasing to them. For someone with a particular set of circumstances, the word may not mean anything. This is why it doesn't matter if someone is ugly or not when it comes to their own personal definition of beauty.
How you see yourself and how others see you is entirely up to you. However, there are some who view beauty through different sets of eyes and what they see is completely foreign to others.
