(114 words) Love is a feeling that extends the boundaries of consciousness and allows you to see beauty in a person who before that seemed a stranger.
In the text of Shcherbakova, the seventh grader Sasha constantly fell in love with pretty girls, paying attention only to their appearance. Therefore, he was never interested in Nadia. But once having seen how hard she works in the arena, I realized that not only beauty is valuable in people.
So, in the novel by A. S. Pushkin "Eugene Onegin" the main character and his friend talk about the Larin sisters. Lensky fell in love with the frivolous and mediocre Olga for her beautiful appearance, but his more experienced friend noted the clever and well-read Tatyana, who outwardly looked pale against the background of her sister.
Thus, when you have strong feelings for a person, beauty fades into the background.
Example from the movie: In Kirk Wise's animated film Beauty and the Beast, the main character, Bell, is captured by a monster to save her father. She does not have hopes for a happy future, but she suddenly realizes that the terrible creature that holds her under locks conceals a bright soul. So, the plot reveals the idea that love can erupt contrary to the notion of beauty.
Media example: On one of the federal channels, the story of Nick Vuychich was told. With his ailment, he is from birth, but this did not stop him from gaining the love of his life. His wife Kanae Miyahara claims that his appearance did not prevent her from falling in love with him at first sight.
Life example: A striking example in history is the love of J.P. Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. The beauty and dream of many men was carried away by a modest and unpretentious man in large glasses, which visually weighted an already massive face. She adored him not for his external qualities, but for his rich inner world.
