Read this excerpt from The Outsiders.

I was wishing I looked like Paul Newman—he looks tough and I don’t—but I guess my own looks aren’t so bad. I have light-brown, almost-red hair and greenish-gray eyes. I wish they were more gray, because I hate most guys that have green eyes, but I have to be content with what I have.

What is a universal theme found in the excerpt?

Be happy with the person you are.
Outside appearance does not matter.
Beauty fades, but character does not.
Dreams come true with hard work.

Be happy with the person you are you shouldn't want to change just because you don't have the the nicest body well you do because its yours and you should love it regardless.

Step-by-step explanation:

I said this because well one I am also reading this book in class so of course I wanted to help this person out . Back to the question the reason why I wrote this was what I felt as I was writing the question because he sounds like the guy almost all girls want so of course he should be happy with his body
