For the record, and for the most part, I disagree with the quote at left! While it is important to be your very best self I think our culture puts way too much emphasis on appearance and what is considered attractive.I think societies that spend all their energy focused on the outer package and too little on what's inside end up with people who are very superficial. I suppose I could interpret the slogan differently; "desirable" meant in purely a wholesome sense perhaps. But it's tit for tat, and I could get into semantics but I simply prefer authenticity to people who brand, market & package themselves by focusing exclusively on appearance.
There is another saying: "I've never seen a smiling face that isn't beautiful!" Now, there is a quote that I like! How about looking desirable because you have a countenance that radiates?
Or, think about the insight behind the following quote: "That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful." -Ninon de L'Enclos
And, finally, an old classic, a saying that Andie and I have come to call the "Kathy Pulley Quote," mostly since it's one of Kathy's favorites: "You'll Worry Less About What People Think About You When You Realize How Seldom They Do." -David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest
