I was on Pinterest just now [obviously] looking at LOTR/The Hobbit stuff [of course] and I saw a picture of a Random Mirkwood Elf and I thought, "I'm going to pin that, because he's cute." Then I thought, "Wait, I shouldn't just pin that because he's cute, he's not even an important character, don't be a stupid fangirl, don't pin it just because he's cute." Then I thought, "Screw that." And pinned it anyway.
Then I thought, what's wrong with liking a person's face? Faces are nice things to look at. Liking a person's face is like enjoying looking at an interesting flower or bird or soldering iron. I've never asked God this, but I bet He likes it when people appreciate each other's good looks, because He made them good-looking. You can look at a person with a nice face and say "Hey, Lord, that's a neat-looking person You made," and He'll be tickled pink and say, "Aw, really?"
This is a bit of a revelation for me, because I've always beaten it into my head that I can ONLY like a person for his personality, and there can't be anything physical about it at all.
