"Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." 

Do you ever ask yourself, "What is beauty?" What makes something or someone beautiful. Is it the love that we give to it? Or is it the fact that the thing itself is beautiful? Does beauty exist independently and we just perceive it and name it, or is it that we name it beautiful, so it becomes beautiful. Does beauty depend on us?

I always wondered what BEAUTY really is ... Is it the eyes of the beholder that makes something beautiful or is it that the beautiful things can only be perceived by those who can see beauty?

The more  I think about it, the more it starts to make less sense.

The thing is, people love to label things.. good and bad, evil and pious, light and dark, life and death. This duality is what creates a division inside our hearts. But the truth is, all of it exists at the same time. Life exsits because there is a concept of death; Dark is basically the absence of light and light is just the absence of dark. Both exist at the same time. 

The reason I'm telling you this is because it's related to what beauty really is. Beauty is LOVE. It's in seeing the good and bad. The embrace of it. Once you start to see that these things are not separate from each other. Once you start seeing the world and the people around as who they are, you start seeing the good and bad at the same time, and they are just concepts to you, part of what that thing is. And it makes that thing or person whole.

As RUMI once said,

"Out beyond the ideas of right and wrong, there is a field. I'll meet you there." 

There's beauty in accepting the ugly and imperfect. Because, beauty itself is diverse, imperfect and subjective. 

Something beautiful to you might be something that is ordinary to them and something beautiful to them might be something that is ordinary to you, but that doesn't make that thing less valuable or not worth appreciating, things remain beautiful, no matter whether anyone appreciates it or not.

But beauty will only be considered as beauty when you see it, observe it, embrace it and share it.. Or else, it'll be as if it never existed.

So, I guess we can say that:

"Real beauty is in the apprecaition. And that is love. Whatever you can admire and appreciate by embracing it fully.. becomes beautiful." 

"Beauty will save the world." 

Atleast I'd like to believe that..
