    Beauty is defined as the quality or aggregate of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the senses or pleasurably exalts the mind or spirit.

    Take pleasure in all things and all things become beautiful.

    When you look at things or people long enough, you realize that there is beauty in everything. It's a feeling that comes from within that is projected on the world around.

    Have you ever met someone you didnt find initially attractive but after you get to know them they are someone beautiful to you. I think thats because a persons personality and who they are makes the world of difference on how you see what they look like on the outside

    Beauty is the name of all things right in this world, it is being able to see God's handiwork in all we survey in a day. it's the rise and fall of your lover's chest as they try to catch their breath or lay sleeping peacefully in your arms, it's the thrushing sound of a baby's heart through an ultrasound mic. its a buzzard floating on the currents of air waiting, watching for it's opportunity to complete the cycle of life. It's a warm breeze, or cold rain, a snowflake caught on a child's tongue. Beauty is understanding that we are ALL part of this world and as part of it.. a promise to do no harm save for that which we need to sustain our own lives.
    Beauty is seeing poetry in a sidewalk crack as weed tries to push up through it. It's seeing a pretty woman...with grace and charm.. and knowing.. that SHE is only here because of a million coincidences that lead her parents ot a place and time where they thought enough of each other to create "Her" and nurture all those gifts she is offering to this world. Shall I go on?

    I completely agree with this. I have known a few "beautiful" people that I can't stand to look at because of their attitude or personality. This is usually why a few people will ask, "How did he/she end up with him/her?"
