How nice it is to live in a fantasy world in which there is only vanity and egotism, But that ugly awakening when you see that everything is false. Do not you have rather than accepting your sad reality In realizing that what is true indeed Humility is just

By wanting to be beautiful, not only do we damage our natural beauty with surgeries and treatments in order to be above the rest, but we also hurt animals by using them as experiments to see if our skin can handle such treatments. I find it incredible that us humans can be so apathetic and ruthless only to gain wealth and publicity at the expense of our environment and living creatures.

The beauty falls out the intelligence nO ... many people in many times measured people by what bring because what are in the head, verderamente important is what you doN'T know and never forget you are going to.

if you want to conquer a man why you show what you are not? If we want to change what people think of us, we should begin with our hearts not our appearance...

The image published for Ana is of Jocelyn Wildenstein "cat woman" this woman has put on surgeries for love failure with her husband, whom loves cats, and she for seduce his ex-husband, decides to change her face as a feline In my opinion it is sad that a person destroys her face in this way for seduce someone, I think that in this way shows that is not valued and that it has lost the sense of what really matters

The vanity can be considered a capital sin? If i look from the point of view of the pride (that's a capitla sin); In many religions vanity, in its modern sense, is considered a form of self-idolatry, in which one rejects God for the sake of one's own image, and thereby becomes divorced from the graces of God.

Vanity betrayal always made our wisdom and our interest yet. The surest cure for vanity is loneliness.

I remembered that we were talking about the vanity in class, so, i decided to search this image that makes me feel sickness. I cant believe that there are people with these kinds of mental disorders. I think they use their body this way cause they're sure of the body's dead, but not of the soul's life. So they can manipulate everything while knowing that is possible to touch.

Vanity also has one thing in common with nature and the environment, as every day more people make-up, companies take these the new cosmetics tested on animals, cut trees to plant aloe vera or more plants that are used in shampoos

Vanity is something that we all need because is vanity what motivate us to love ourselves and to be better than the rest of the world, but like everything, in excess is wrong. Someone so vain is haughty, someone so vain is arrogant and if there’s something I have clear about this topic is that in relations where vanity is the most important thing, never love is going to work. I’ll explain it: Where man or woman have vanity as priority, there wont be real love, this because it involves that we are going to be only thinking in ourselves, or how do I look, or what I have to show, or what I can win, and a relationship as I have said is between 2, there’s no one who win, there’s no one better that the other, we are all at the same level, the level of love, is about how we work together and love each other

for me vanity is not bad depending on how you take it. Many people do not care and others throughout her life revolves around it, become obsessed with their imperfections and want to go under the knife for everything.
changes are fine but without get over the top

Beauty starts from within so that it can express on the outside ... that if you start from inside you can expect from the outside

Ladies: Vanity on many occasions can become us in slaves of an image we don´t have to meet the gaze of someone who we even deserve. So let's open our eyes and let´s realize what we value and let´s see the unique beauty that each of us has inside.
However, the most beautiful feeling is getting ready for "that person"and wait for his approval, but the most beautiful is knowing that "that person" will look you the same every day, with or without makeup ...

I do not agree with those who think that vanity is excessive self-love
Remember:
“When you truly are able to love yourself, you will find that your ability to manifest—to create benevolence, to trust, and all other possibilities—will come from this self-love.”

Vanity can be a quality or a weakness.
Is good to see how a woman and a man take care from their selves for affection to somebody else. It’s nice feel and look pretty for my own, but let’s be realistic, is more passionate to get ready for your partner. And we have to recognize, it’s more gratifying to have someone who loves him selves that any who doesn’t. But like so many things, every in excess is awful, and that’s is why each person have to be careful with its own vanity. What do you think????

Why do you pretend that you're not?, why are not happy with who you are?. frankly it's absurd to be who you are, is absurd vanity that start to change ... The society has become ignorant then why you keep on the road?

Self-love and vanity make us believe that our vices are virtues, and our virtues, vices

One of the problems of vanity is that the persons start to become materialist, and confuse the love inside, the real love, for the love that the money can buy! that's despicable but happen
I wanna show two songs of beautiful and powerful womens, Madonna and Marilyn Monroe, these songs clearly shows the use that give a woman to her body to get her ambitions.
