You Shouldn't Judge People by Their Look

You shouldn't judge people by their look

I strongly believe that people should never judge a person by external appearances. The way we look not always reflects the way we are. We can make huge mistakes if we let the external appearances tell us everything about someone. Although external appearances might convey you the characteristic of a person, you should not use them to judge a person. Physical appearance, cloths or explicit character don't tell you what a person really is. Without getting to know a person personally, you cannot tell who or what a person is really like.

There are many criminal cases that prove the fact that people who are in nicely dress turn out to be a professional murder. People who dress nicely must not be a nice person; on the other hand, people who dress in dirty cloths can have better mind. Cleaning mate who works all day long clean the house cannot be judged as a bad person. It is unreasonable to tell how good or bad people are from what they ware. Sometimes we might think that people who have a beauty look are nice and generous but will this always be correct?

I have met people who give an erroneous first impression. At first sight one could describe them in a completely different way from what they turn to be when you get to know them well. Before making premature conclusions we should pay attention at many other features, such as the way the person talks, the words he uses, the look in his eyes, that help us to recognize how is that person like. People's values, educational background, skills and virtues lie in the inside, not in the outside. I once got to know one girl who is my friend now, she would hardly smile and many people thought she was elegant or unfriendly. But after I talked to her and got to know her personality, she seemed to be a nicer friend than others who always have nice smile on their faces. Explicit character is not enough to judge a person. So, if you just see and judge the person, it will be definitely illogical.

I consider that outward qualities are related in some ways to the manner we are and the way we feel inside. Sometimes the clothes we chose express our mood, how we are feeling at that moment. Also, the hairstyle, make up and many other aspects of our look sometimes give an idea of our attitude towards life.

Even though, not all aspects or, for some people, any aspect of the personality is shown in external appearances. The look is not evident enough to communicate deep feelings, beliefs, thoughts and behaviors. There is so much more inside of a person that can only be noticed after knowing him or her very well.

There is a great risk of missing good friends if we allow us to judge by appearances. We always should give a second chance to people to show us how they really are, without masquerades. We have to be smart to not mistake what we see on the surface,
