A quote from Beauty

Each of us is responsible for how we see, and how we see determines what we see. Seeing is not merely a physical act: the heart of vision is shaped by the state of soul. When the soul is alive to beauty, we begin to see life in a fresh and vital way.

It is a startling truth that how you see and what you see determines how and who you will

What if beauty was just our name for experiences that push us out of our mental ruts and burst open our reducing valves of consciousness?

There are times when beauty is shy and hesitates until it can trust the worthiness of the beholder.

What's beautiful depends on who we are, what we've encountered, where we live, and when. Likewise, the art that opens us to the chaotic stream of reality-the art we find beautiful-changes with time and with us, as we evolve. Beauty, I'd come to think, doesn't have to have a physical form, and it certainly doesn't have to be something we agree on. B
