Hello Friends,
I watched a television series about ancient people in Britain, including the Druids and Romans. It was as entertaining as it was a depiction of brutality and violent incidents. That was the story's thrust, but one memorable incident stuck in my mind.
A prince with little ambition and more empathy had married a woman, his complete opposite in character. She relished her position and anticipated a rise to power. In a dispute between her and the prince, he turned to her and said, "You are beautiful on the outside but ugly on the inside."
As a male of the human race, I have often been fooled by a woman's outward appearance and assumed she was beautiful on the inside as she presented herself to me physically. It was only a matter of time for her to reveal her true character, and several times, she was like the princess in the story: beautiful on the outside but ugly on the inside. However, I discovered more than that.
I discovered that some women I encountered who were not beauty queens, models, or movie stars with impressive photogenic qualities yet were indeed beautiful on the inside. When seeking a companion or mate, the challenge for men is to remember this and not rush to judge.
The women we meet must not be expected to be the quintessential depiction of commercial mass media and entertainment. We must take the time to learn who they are and let them know who we are because men can be handsome on the outside and ugly on the inside, too.
