In the long run, good faces cannot overshadow good hearts.

Let's face it, we're all judged on the basis of our looks. We all must look presentable and talk sense though, that's another factor and I feel we should all try to do that, makes us feel more confident. Anyhow, you cannot get to know of people's hearts without getting to know them. Basically, just by judging physical appearances is a lot easier.

I'll break the above into two parts -
1)Why the people say that looks shouldn't matter and then, act differently?
2)Why beauty overpowers more substantial things, say a good heart?

The first question is equivalent to saying why people do something and then, act differently. Let's consider ourselves to help answer this. It is not like we practise what we preach always, do we? But practising what we preach I think is in everyone's good, especially for oneself. It gives peace of mind and courage. So, why don't we do it? Perhaps, because what is meant to be preached is in general, good! Things like honesty, following your goals, having self discipline,etc are preached. Now, to practise them is the hard part. Our practises our rooted in impurity, and to step out of that muddle requires a real lot!
What am I trying to imply out of all this? That if someone else says that he is looking for a good heart and then favours beauty in the end, don't harbour hatred towards him. Just realise, he is also a human being and let it be.

That kind of answers the second question too. Since people are weak, they don't have the mental strength or self discipline to wait and watch rather than fall for the all enticing beauty.

There's no cause for concern though. 😆 They say that beauty is a surface level phenomenon for a reason. It can't hold you for long. Either you will grow out of it or that person will lose it.

If you judge a book by it's cover, you are likely going to miss out on a gr8 story... reely!😊

the problem is , beautidul women/handsome men can become old and wrinkled, and rich husbands/wives can become poor . So good hearts are better. Although I don't want any person, just the money. :)

Why does a good face overshadow a good heart?

Maybe because we are fallible mortals, maybe because its easier, maybe because despite what everyone might preach looks do matter.

What is inner beauty anyway? Isn't beauty, both inner and outer, a mere matter of perception?

I dont mind admiring the cover of the book if it's beautiful.. but liking a book just because of it's cover is... not possible :)
I'd say, people are too lazy to get to know someone for who they are, so, yeah. Laziness, lack of depth in life compel people to make such choices.
Talking and preaching - anyone can do it! and people do it for various reasons like - satisfying their ego by preaching, etc. For such people, it wouldnt matter if the girl is beautiful or ugly on the inside, because they themselves lack depth in life .

first, we do not have the capacity, tools to judge anyone. reading ones heart is not easy.
second, there is no judgment when it comes to an individual. we can judge their actions.
therefore best is not to get judgemental at all. however you can assess a individual lol.
