Today's Belief:

Beauty is the thing that most of the people find being drawn on the face. They just forget this fact that beauty is a temporary thing but the real history is carved by the behaviour of heart. The words that come on to our tongues also serve our heart on their way and heart is considered as the place where the real, the deepest and never ending desires of a person are born. Influence lies in the heart but nowadays people try to find their true love by looking at the faces and they just ignore a true fact. The reality is that people have control on their face, they can wash it if they want, they can mask it if they desire to do that, they can even replace their real look with the artificial one but the inner side is already fixed and can't be changed. Just like the modern age people also trying to modify themselves and also forgetting the reality, to which they really belong, the Nature.
