Recently, I heard about 'The New Colour Iris' - this allows people to change the colour of their beautiful, God-given eyes permanently...but after the procedure was done, the results these people faced and are still facing is shocking and very sad.
Although many might shake their heads, why do people want to change the way they look?
Its the need to impress others, stand out of the crowd, they're searching for satisfaction and above all, try to imitate role models, icons and celebrities. From wearing certain clothes, to going to the gym to shed some weight, people just search for satisfaction. We all feel that way sometimes - 'I wish I was like that!' - I've been there too!
But we've got to remember that we were made in His image, we are part of God's handiwork and He has made us perfect. By trying to change ourselves or seeking for something more, we degrade the work of His hands. We all are beautiful in our own way! Magazines and other forms of media project an image that is so fake, things are certainly NOT what they seem. Jonny Diaz's song 'More Beautiful You' reveals the shocking behind the scenes activity in many of these 'beauty' photo shoots. We do not need to conform to the expectations of the society, most of it is fake and edited! We ought to be satisfied, happy with who we are and praise God for His beautiful creation.
So, instead of wasting our energy in complaining, lets be grateful and use th energy in something worth while! Remember, we all are beautiful in our own way!
