" It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness. "

Never judge a book by its cover. We all must have heard this and still we fail to apply the phenomenon in our life. We tend to partially judge people when we first meet them on the basis of their looks.

Beauty is attractive and can drive us in that direction. But in today's world outer beauty is glorified much; the way a person looks, the texture of the person's face, the color, and much more. It creates a world of delusion of having a perfect look.

But true beauty resides within us. The inner self is a reflection of goodness. A person's character and self-belief are the real charms.
