A New Definition
If beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder, then why has there become such a narrow idea of what the word "beautiful" means?
The name of my blog, re-defining beauty, is meant to emphasize that not only is there a need to redefine beauty, but there is also a need to define beauty for ourselves in the first place...hence the hyphenated name. I wanted it to not only say "redefining beauty" but "defining beauty" as well.
Obviously, it won't be easy to redefine beauty for ourselves or others, but I hope that this blog will help you realize just how important it can be.
TRY IT: Start thinking about how you define beauty in your own life. Start looking around you at people that you consider beautiful and notice what it is about them that stands out. Why do you consider them to be beautiful? Did you decide for yourself that they were "beautiful people" or did someone else decide it for you (and you just accepted it)?
