The Value of Beauty

There's a video going around Facebook and Twitter today that's worth a view.




My first thought was that it was very admirable of him to talk about this epiphany.

My second thought was the realization that this story doesn't just apply to women. It applies to *everyone* - male, female, transgender. There are thousands of people in the world we never talk to because of the judgements we make based on physical appearance.

It's the reason why I love the internet so much. It gives us a chance to know each other without boundaries; to see the *core* of who everyone is. I'm frequently surprised by pictures of internet friends, because I imagine you to look completely different.

When what really matters is that I know you at all.
