Beauty

Beauty to me doesn't look or smell or taste or feel like anything. I think that in some way, everything and everyone is beautiful. Which sounds cheesy and dumb, but its what I think. You don't have to be the stereotypical version of a beautiful person to be beautiful. This is sort of a weird topic for me though, because I do think everything in some way has some form of beauty, but at the same time, when I stop to look at something, I always find the ugliness rather than the beauty..but I guess people and objects at their "ugliest" is when I think they are the most beautiful. Its hard to explain. Like, the flaws of the world are what I find the most beautiful. Like raw emotions and Fruedian slips, things like that. There are other flaws that I would like to say, but I won't because I would have to explain why I think those things are beautiful when most people think they are horrific or tragically sad or unsettlingly weird. But that is all I can think of how to describe it, so I guess I'll leave it at that.

I love that you point out that in the ugliness of the world there is also beauty. Your examples of raw emotion and language slips are really inspiring. Very thoughtful writing.
