The Physicality of Beauty. →

cardyboo:jennylovescupcakes:

Oftentimes people generalize or depict beauty as the physical attributes of a person. Well, I consider that a shallow understatement and only scratching the surface. Beauty is how one expresses and utilizes their external features. Beauty is implicit for it lies within the action of every physical trait— it isn’t the physical trait itself.

Hair- it’s not how it looks or feels, but rather how she runs her hands through it, how it blows in the wind, or how it falls onto her shoulders and down her back.

Eyes- it’s not the color or shape, but rather the depth and how she looks at you when you’re in front of her and lets them speak when she’s at loss of words.

Voice- it’s not how she sounds, but rather what she speaks of in the conversation.

Mouth- it’s not how nice her lips or teeth are, but rather how she smiles when she laughs or perks her lips when she kisses.

Hands- it’s not how pretty her nails or the the size of her hands, but rather how gentle her touch is and assuring her grip when you intertwine your fingers within hers.

Legs- it’s not how long they are or smooth they feel, but rather how strong her stride is when she walks and the contour of her muscles that give shape to her jeans or leggings.

Curves- it’s not how big her butt or breasts are, but rather the defining shape that gives her body an exquisite silhouette.

Personality- The key to unlock her inner beauty for it brings to life her physicality and portrays she’s just as beautiful as anyone else— just in her own way.
