devastation & beauty.

What does it mean to be devastatingly gorgeous? I was called that once. It confused me. Still does. Is it a good thing to be devastatingly beautiful? Should I have been insulted? No, I dont think so. But I feel weird. Maybe, it wasnt a compliment so much as a statement, a pure fact. That sounds conceited. I just mean that its not something I would say to someone to compliment them. Im not complaining though; not at all. It just gets me thinking every once in a while. Do I want to be devastatingly gorgeous? Its such an oxy-moron, that maybe they cancel eachother out, which would just make me a "Plain Jane". Maybe It means my beauty is envious, but I doubt thats the case at all. Its like the words "beautiful disaster." Two opposites, but they give each other more value, they make one another more prominent. A beautiful disaster might mean that beauty, or a silver lining, can be seen from a disaster. Or that even though everything is a mess, it still can have positive effects. So does that mean that someone who is devastatingly beautiful is a devastation, but theyre still gorgeous? Or does it mean that through the tragedy of them, something unbelieveable will come of it? Or is it possible that someone can be so beautiful, that it can cause someone else pain, but just the mere sight of it?
I dont know my opinion on this. I want to say that I do, but the fact of the matter is, I dont. Ive tried to make an opinion. But I need guidance, so if you have an idea on what it means to be devastatingly beautiful, please let me know.
