On Beauty

Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting -- a wayside sacrament.
Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

True beauty is within and you cannot possess beauty which is outside of you because this doesn't last for eternity. When you listen deep within your heart, mind and soul, you will know that you become one with all the beautiful creation of the universe. You become one with GOD - the source of all beauty!

Yes, I believe God is really the source or author of beauty. He himself is infinitely beautiful.

payter . . . . . ako maka sulti sa poem ky

Nothing endures but change.
There is nothing permanent except change.
The only constant is change.
Change is the only constant.
Change alone is unchanging.

ang physical beauty sa taw ma wala ra pro ang beauty sa imong pagka taw di gyud ma wala

The most beautiful ape is ugly when compared to a human. The wisest human will seem like an ape when compared to a god with respect to wisdom, beauty, and everything else.

So true. All physical beauty passes away. What will endure is inner beauty.

Very nice bro. I never thought you were this poetic. Btw, I also enjoy Albert Camus very much like you do.

It is said that that there is the observable/perceptible, the mathematical and the intangible beauty. Symmetry, flawlessness are among a few characteristics of observable beauty as it is to the elegance of mathematical perfection. Intangible beauty to classical philosophers would be that of intelligence and wisdom. But in all their splendor and desirability, there is no greater beauty when we are at peace with the beauty of our individuality and when such individuality wills to serve every positive human endeavor...then the world would have been more beautiful in all its four corners.

Hopeless romantic lang ko bro hehehe...

Mao jud bro... There is tangible/ observable beauty and there is also intangible beauty... And I love to contemplate about them. I often ask myself, what is beauty, really? What makes a thing, event, or person, beautiful? Why are we so attracted to it?

For me different jud ang beauty sa isa ka person i-compare sa beauty that you see sa mga works of art or sa beauty sa cosmos. Lahi ra jud ang beauty that emanates from a person, whether that beauty is an external kind or an internal kind. Siguro it just validates the truth about the inherent worth of human beings. We are far different from other things in the natural world. We find clues within our selves that we are meant for eternity.
