Never. I would never have cosmetic surgery. I can think of few things more silly, frankly.
There are several women in town here who have had every cosmetic surgery known to man, several times. Sure, from a distance, they look great. But up close, they look plastic - as if their faces will crack if they smiled. Scary - truly.
I am not my body. I am my mind, my soul, my heart. My body is just the package I am currently living in. Having a smaller nose or larger breasts isn't going to change who I am inside, who I can become.
I find it terribly sad that people will spend so much time and money fighting aging, and altering their appearance when they won't devote a single dime or hour to helping those less fortunate or learning something new. We seem to becoming a culture of "Doesn't matter how I feel or what I do, just so I look good."
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
