ted at the man. at this time the whole audience burst into an uproar.
how disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this! it is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others.
now, i'm coming to another true story. it's about a poor, ordinary looking old woman. she was a widow without any children, living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from rubbish heaps. however,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up. every day she labored from morning till night. in order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood. she got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.
when asked why she chose to burden herself with so many children,she smiled and simply answered,"oh,i love children and i like to have their company. "
though the old woman was poor materially, she was full of affection and rich in spirit. she was loved dearly by her children. she was also highly appreciated by the local government, and truly respected by people in her community.
maybe you can't help wondering, "what makes that ordinary woman so extraordinary?" it is nothing else but her inner beauty, her true devotion of love without any thought of rewarding. what a sharp contrast there is between the great woman and the selfish singer]
so,to answer the question "what is real beauty?", i declare definitely,it is the beauty lying in one's heart of hearts and embodied in his actions and deeds,that is,the inner heauty!
