Fate. I said it before, and I'll say it again, it rules our lives far more than most of us would care to admit.

Anyway, I just had this thought the other day, when I was watching Bachelorette 2 on 5. I know, reality shows are really ubitiqious these days - and this is hardly one of the more watchable of them. Still, I remember thinking, Meredith doesn't look so hot to me - yet there are so many guys dying for a chance to get her? Must be her inner beauty. Then it hit me: what the hell is inner beauty, exactly?

Personality, character - can you define this as inner beauty? What makes an otherwise Plain Jane look so attractive to you? People have long held the notion that inner beauty is by far the more important of the twin ideals of beauty, for people would rather marry a nice girl rather than the village bitch - except in rare cases; see My Sassy Girl for said example - and the most important aspect, inner beauty doesn't fade, unlike the physical variant which endures only as far as the first set of wrinkles. Or does it?

Whoever said inner beauty can't fade? Who the f*ck said inner beauty has to be absolute? The handsomeness of the heart is surely as vulnerable to the passage of time and human politicking as anything else, perhaps even more so. When a man divorces his wife, or vice versa, barring extramartial affairs or any number of weird reasons, the main issue is that his or her spouse has changed, and they are no longer compatiable.

Many men have left their wives for the twenty pounds they put on since marriage, or the crow's eyes they developed - over their whole face. Such is their shallowness, and yet few recognize that just as many people leave their spouses because their inner beauty is no longer what it once was. The proverbial nice girl turning into a dominating shrew after marriage - that is but one of the many examples that inner beauty is not all it seems.

All of us know the cliched phrase, Beauty is only skin deep. I say, beauty is only as deep as it is necessary for others to see - physical or otherwise.
