I
feel like Oural was shaped by the world’s perception of her, which she grew to
be more than the unfortunate circumstances of her beauty; or rather the unfortunate
circumstance that people told her she was not beautiful. I like that she
learned to compensate and then she attained power through the knowledge she had
amassed. Oural was then able to reinvent herself through power and then it didn’t
matter that she didn’t look conventionally beautiful. However, ever human, she
still felt haunted by her lack of beauty. I think that even as I continue to
work hard and gain knowledge I still won’t attain my goals. Even as I have
accomplished some of my goals, I still feel like I will not get to where I want
to. I think that this story is something that a lot of people can relate to;
uncertainty, confusion, and sadness are themes and emotions we can all
understand.
