Beauty is a phenomenon that is present in all aspects of life. It can be found in nature, people, art, design, and even in everyday objects. To some, beauty is an external physical trait that is pleasing to the eyes, to others it is something internal and can only be seen through the heart and soul. It is often said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that is accurately true. We each have our own definition and perception of beauty, and it is fascinating the various interpretations and meanings that come of it.
The most traditional go-to definition of beauty is physical traits; often, these physical traits are seen as the ideal definition of beauty. This definition is usually seen in advertisements and media, where a certain body type, face shape, hair color, or makeup look is glorified. But while it is an easy grasp of beauty, it should not be solely attributed to it. Beauty goes much deeper than physicality — it is much more layered and complex than meets the eyes.
In the broader sense, beauty can be anything that brings forth a great sense of admiration, pleasure, and awe. It can appear in nature, in art, in architecture, or in a kind word. Beauty is serene mountains, a bright sunset, a work of art, the way a smile lights up a face, a kind gesture, a thoughtful gift — beauty is whatever and however you perceive it to be.
Beauty is an emotion, an emotion that is powerful enough to take away all one’s sorrow and replace it with a calming sense of contentment. It can be a moment of pure happiness, a moment of appreciation, a moment of love. In each of our lives, beauty is a reminder that life is good and beautiful and should be enjoyed.
