Random Thoughts - Simple Everyday Lessons - 2

Beauty Lies Internally !

Happened to see a lady in the office rest room one morning. It was around 9AM in the morning, roughly 30 mins after a typical day generally begins at office. She came with a huge kit and I was wondering what she was doing. She started off a whole make over session. Just thinking about what she was doing, I went back to work. Couple of hours later, I saw her again repeating the whole procedure again. I realized it was a routine ting for her, to keep herself neat, fresh and "beautiful" every couple of hours. This became a constant visual treat to me. One fine day, I was late to start from office. I had to take a BMTC bus and was hence walking towards the bus stop. While I just got out of the office campus, I saw her (as fresh as she could be in the morning) waiting outside for someone. I got into a bus and was waiting in a traffic signal. There was a card next to the bus and the same lady was in it. A physically challenged person was trying to move towards the vehicle. He was basically a beggar trying to get something from the folks to eat for the day. The card windows that were open till that moment instantly went up on seeing him and the face that was made up so beautifully all through the day , suddenly turned disgusting!

Seeing this a wonderful quote stuck my head "BEAUTY LIES INSIDE U , DON'T LOOK FOR IT OUTSIDE"
