It is human nature that all of us should be fond of
beauty. Everybody was born with a heart for beauty.
Today in China,with the rising of our living
standard, people's requirement of beauty has been
heightened accordingly. Some people spare no money or
energy on beautiful clothes, fashionable hair styles,the
decoration of their houses and even the improvement of
their looks. But it seems to me,all
these are more or less confined to the beauty in
appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.
In my opinion,we shouldn't only pay attention to
beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of
the mind and what we are after should be the perfect
unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty. As we
all know,so far as objects and animals are
concerned,there is only beautiful appearance to be
1
mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although the outward
beauty really matters, the inner beauty is much more
important. This was confirmed by a famous Russian writer
in words much like this: "A person is
not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for
being lovely. "
Here, I'd like to quote two typical instances and I'm
sure, my dear friends,from them you'll find out what real
beauty is.
Recently I learned from the radio an unpleasant
incident about a well known singer. She is very charming
with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing
the song."Devotion of Love". Not long ago,she was invited
to Zhejiang Province to give performance. The moment she
was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more
reward. Worse still,after her request was satisfied, she
didn't begin to sing at once. Instead,she took her time
to count all the money piece by piece. Thus she kept the
audience waiting for half an hour. So when she at last
showed up and started to sing "Devotion of Love",a man
rose up from his seat and shouted at her,"You don't have
any devotion of love. You are not qualified to sing this
song ! "Hearing this, the singer stopped singing and
2
began to shout abuses with her finger pointed 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
